Remote Interface Configuration 3
DNS Server
The Domain Name Service (DNS) is an Internet service that translates Domain
names into IP addresses. Contact your network administrator to determine if
DNS is being used and for the correct address.
• If you change the DNS address, you must cycle power on the multimeter to
activate the new setting.
• The default DNS Address for the multimeter is “0.0.0.0”.
• The DNS Server address is stored in non–volatile memory, and does not
change when power has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST) command, or
after an Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet) command.
Web Password
You can control access to certain features of the 34410A/11A Web Interface
(see “Agilent 34410A/11A Web Interface” on page 98) using password
protection. The password is disabled by default. You can enable and set a web
password from the front panel. A web password consists of up to 12
alphanumeric characters.
Instrument Unexpectedly Goes into Remote
If your 34410A/11A unexpectedly goes into remote mode, it is likely because
you have the instrument configured to the LAN on someone else’s host
controller. Operations on that host controller can query your instrument
causing it to go into remote mode. To prevent this, do any of the following:
• Disconnect the instrument from the LAN.
• Disable the LAN interface from the front panel (Utility menu).
• Use SYST:COMM:LAN:HISTory? to determine the IP address that is
causing the problem. Then delete your instrument’s LAN address from that
host controller.
