5.2.04 Wired Connection to a Company or Corporate
Network Using a DHCP Allocated IP Address
Connecting the model 7230 to a company or corporate network using that network’s
DHCP server involves no effort from the corporate or company IT department in
allocating a fixed IP address, but consequently can require a little more effort by the
end user.
1) Connect the LAN connector on the rear panel of the model 7230 to an active
network connection on the company or corporate network
2) Set the rear panel Config 2 switch to position 1. This will cause the model 7230
to be allocated an IP address by the DHCP server in company network.
3) With the rear-panel mounted power switch set to 0 (off), plug the line cord into
the model PS0110 power supply unit and the 5-pin DIN plug on the power cable
from the PS0110 to the 7230’s rear panel POWER INPUT connector.
4) Turn on the model 7230. The front panel status light should initially be green,
but will then flash red and green as it “counts out” the IP address it has been
allocated by the network DHCP server.
5) Most company and corporate networks use a domain controller, but the model
7230 cannot log onto a domain and so you will not in general be able to “see” it
by browsing network resources. However, once the allocated IP address is
known you will be able to access the instrument by typing this into a browser’s
address bar.
There are several possible ways of identifying the IP address
