initialization.
9. Identify the IP address assigned to the power supply by discovering it
with a
VXI-11 compliant discover program.
10. Continue by following the procedure in Section 5.2.4.
NOTE: When Auto-IP assigns an IP address, Web page connections will
time out after 5 minutes of inactivity, which requires logging in again.
5.2.3 Network Setup Using the Serial COM Port
1. Connect from the PC COM1 port to the power supply’s RS232 port
(see Figure 5-1 for port location) using a cable with an RJ modular
plug to D-Subminiature connector (refer to details in Section 3.2).
2. Have ready the IP address (e.g. 192.168.0.200) and subnet mask
(e.g., 255.255.255.0) to be assigned to the power supply.
3. Run a serial terminal program, such as MS HyperTerminal TM . Set the
baud rate (bits per second) to 19200, data bits to 8, parity to none,
stop bits to 1, flow control to none. Establish the connection.
If you choose to use MS HyperTerminal TM :
a. After inputting the above parameters, in the HyperTerminal TM
window click the Disconnect icon and then the Properties icon.
b. In the Properties window select the Settings tab.
c. In the Settings window click the ASCII Setup button.
d. In the ASCII Setup window in the ASCII Sending section,
check “Echo typed characters locally” and in the ASCII
Receiving section, check “Append line feeds to incoming line
ends.” Leave all other check boxes in their default state.
