3 Remote Interface Configuration
This chapter tells how to configure the Agilent 34410A/11A for remote
interface communication. For additional information, refer to the:
• Agilent USB/LAN/GPIB Connectivity Guide for interface configuration and
troubleshooting information. This manual is found on the Agilent
Automation–Ready CD–ROM or at www.agilent.com/find/connectivity.
• Agilent 34410A/11A/L4411A Programmer’s Reference Help for information
on programming the instrument using SCPI commands. This help file is
found on the Agilent 34410A/11A/L4411A Product Reference CD–ROM.
The Agilent 34410A/11A supports GPIB, USB, and LAN interfaces. All three
interfaces are enabled at power on. The front panel
Remote annunciator turns
on whenever there is activity on the remote interface.
•GPIB Interface You need only set the GPIB address for the instrument (the
factory default is 22) and connect it to your PC using a GPIB cable (sold
separately).
•USB Interface There is nothing to configure on your instrument for a USB
connection. Just connect the instrument to your PC using the USB 2.0 cable
included with the instrument.
•LAN Interface By default, DHCP is enabled on the instrument, which may
enable network communication over the LAN interface
(10BaseT/100BaseTx). You may need to set several configuration
parameters as described in the LAN configuration sections that follow.
To configure and verify an interface connection between the 34410A/11A and your PC, use
the Agilent IO Libraries Suite (E2094M Agilent IO Libraries for Windows) or an equivalent.
