The instrument uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) as
its addressing protocol. Therefore, it is not necessary to set up an IP
address if your network supports DHCP. If it does not, you can assign
a static address in the standard Windows network setup menu.

The Remote Control Assistant monitors communication between your PC
and oscilloscope when you are operating the instrument remotely. You can
log all events or errors only. This log can be invaluable when you are
creating and debugging remote control applications.

If you are connecting the oscilloscope to a network, first contact your
Information Systems administrator. If you are connecting the oscilloscope
directly to your PC, connect a GPIB or Ethernet cable between them.

1. On the Remote dialog, make a Port selection: TCPIP (transmission

control protocol/Internet protocol) or GPIB (general purpose
interface bus). If you do not have a GPIB card installed, the GPIB
selection will not be accessible.

2. If you are using GPIB, set a GPIB address by touching inside the GPIB

Address data entry control and provide an address.
OR

If you are using TCPIP, press the Net Connections button; the
Windows Network Connections window opens.

You can reconfigure

the oscilloscope's connection if it is already connected to the network or
make a new connection.

clients. To restrict access, under
