3.4.30 Network Menu (Option)
Figure 59 – Network Menu Screen
Main Menu → Communications Menu → Network Menu
The Network Menu only appears when the Network Port is enabled in the Hardware Menu (refer to
Section 3.4.35). The Network Menu allows the user to view or set the IP Address, Netmask and
Gateway if the optional network port is installed.
The following modes are available:
NORMAL: In this mode nothing is done with the network port
during boot-up. It is assumed to be configured correctly or unused.
READ IP: This mode interrogates the network port for its IP
address. The menu will display the network address after boot-up.
SET IP: The user may enter an IP address, Netmask and Gateway
address (following the usual rules for formatting these addresses).
At this time the instrument does not validate the correctness of
these entries. When the user cycle power, the instrument will first
instruct the network port on its new address. It will switch to Read
IP mode and read back the address it just set so the user may
verify it in the menu.
Set DHCP: This sets the network port into DHCP mode, allowing
the network to assign the instrument an IP address.
