With the Host and Port fields of the Ethernet Test Utility set,
interaction with the power supply through SCPI commands can
begin, as the following figure shows:

SETTING LAN PARAMETERS

There are three ways to set the required LAN information on the
power source: through the Ethernet connection, through the serial
or USB port, or through the Web interface.

Setting LAN Parameters via Ethernet

Use the “GetAssignIPAddress.exe” Windows utility program that
is distributed on the CD ROM with every power source. This
utility uses the network connection to set parameters on the power
source; therefore, the power source and the PC will have to be
connected to the same network through a hub or to each other using
a crossover network cable (local network).

Setting LAN Parameters via Serial or USB Port

Set the parameters using SCPI commands; refer to Chapter 5,
“Remote Operation.”
