5. Set instrument parameters as appropriate, such as measurement mode, frequency
range, amplitude. You may skip this step and set up the instrument remotely at a later
time, after Ethernet connection has been established.

compatibility issues with HTML-5, do not connect using another browser than Chrome.
7. Enter the instrument IP address in the browser address bar to open the Web Remote
Control Login page illustrated in Figure 9-1 on page 9-3.
Connection to a Wi-Fi Portable Router
Instead of connecting the instrument directly to a LAN, you can connect it to a Wi-Fi router.
This section documents connection to the ZyXEL MWR102 Portable Router as an example.
1. Take note of the router’s SSID and pre-programmed password, which are found on a
sticker affixed to the router.
2. Using the Ethernet cable included with the router, connect one end to the black LAN
port and the other end to the test instrument’s Ethernet port.
3. Insert the Mini-B (small) end of the provided USB cable into the router and the Type-A
(larger) end of the cable into one of the USB ports of your test instrument.
4. Optionally, secure the router to the instrument body using a strip of Velcro or other
hook-and-loop fastener. You may also place the router in the instrument carrying case,
if it fits.
5. Use your computer’s Wi-Fi Network Connection utility to find the router. With the
ZyXEL MWR102 Portable Router, the SSID name will be ZyXEL followed by an
alphanumeric string unique to your particular router.
6. Connect to this SSID. When prompted, enter the router password noted in Step 1.
7. Set the IP address manually on the instrument. Refer to “Ethernet Menu” on page B-2.
8. Launch the Google Chrome browser on your PC, laptop, or mobile device. Due to
compatibility issues with HTML-5, do not connect using another browser than Chrome.
9. Enter the instrument IP address in the browser address bar to open the Web Remote
Control Login page illustrated in Figure 9-1 on page 9-3.
