Fluke 5790B - Verifying Absolute AC Error for Region V (2.2 mV through 22 mV)

Remote Operation
USB 2.0 Remote Control 5
5-11
Once the internal LAN server connects with the client computer, the LAN server
rejects any other connection attempts by other computers/clients and will “tunnel”
a channel to the connected computer. This prevents multiple computers from
trying to control the Product.
Note
While connected to the Product using the Ethernet remote port, it is
not possible to change the Ethernet port settings. First terminate the
connection and then make Ethernet configuration changes.
Terminate an Ethernet Connection
To terminate the Ethernet connection, you must terminate the Telnet session on
the client computer. Switching remote control ports will also terminate the Telnet
session.
It may be necessary to terminate the Telnet session on the client computer but
maintain the current LAN remote interface port selection. Client Telnet session
termination can vary from computer to computer. Typically, terminating the shell
(or command window in DOS) will terminate the Telnet session. When the client
terminates the Telnet session, the LAN server in the 5790B goes back into listen
mode waiting for a new client to make a LAN connection request.
Use of Ethernet Remote Control
Use the Ethernet port to remotely control the Product, either interactively with a
terminal or under computer control. Operation is the same as with an RS-232
controller connected to the RS-232 port for control.
USB 2.0 Remote Control
1. Touch Setup Menu>System Settings>Remote Port.
2. If the Active Remote Port is not USB, touch Active Remote Port.
3. Touch USB.
4. Touch Exit to exit the Remote Port Menu.
Use the USB port to remotely control the Product, either interactively with a
terminal or under computer control. Operation is the same as with an RS-232
controller connected to the RS-232 port for control.
To configure the Product for USB:
1. Connect to the Product with a virtual communication port on the computer
and a terminal program such as PuTTY, HyperTerminal, or Minicom on a
linux PC.
2. Make sure to close the terminal program on the computer when the USB
remote control cable is disconnected. This properly terminates the virtual
communication port session in the computer.
3. Connect the USB remote control cable and open the virtual communication
port on the computer from within the terminal program.
