3-162 AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual
Ethernet Networking
The AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator can be connected to a
network to access hard disk file systems in the remote computers that use Network
File System (NFS) protocol. You can also log into the AWG710&AWG710B
Arbitrary Waveform Generator from the remote computer to transfer files by using
FTP link software.
You can set up to three remote computers with the AWG710&AWG710B
Arbitrary Waveform Generator and mount their file systems at the same time. You
select the remote files the same way that you select the internal hard disk or floppy
disk.
This subsection describes the following network operations:

Connecting to the
Ethernet
You can connect the AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator to a
100/10 BASE–T Ethernet network. To mount a remote file system or to control the
instrument from an external computer, you must set the following parameters in the
instrument:
IP address and Subnet Mask for the AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary
Waveform Generator
or
Automatically obtains IP address and other parameters with DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol) client function.
Up to three gateway addresses (if necessary)
Figure 3-52 shows the setup screen menu that you can use to set the network
parameters to your AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator.
NOTE. To connect the instrument to the Ethernet, you need to connect the cables
before you power on the instrument.
