LAN speeds
Another characteristic of the LAN is speed. The Model 2651A negotiates with the host PC and other
LXI compliant devices on the LAN to transmit data at the highest speed possible. LAN speeds must
be configured to match the speed of the other instruments on the network.
To set the LAN speed:
1. From the front panel, press the MENU key, and then select LAN > CONFIG > SPEED.
2. Turn the navigation wheel
to select either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.
3. Press the ENTER key.
4. Press the EXIT (LOCAL) key once to return to the LAN CONFIG menu.
5. Select APPLY_SETTINGS > YES, and then press the ENTER key.
Duplex mode
The duplex mode is based on the LAN configuration. There are two settings:
• Half-duplex: Allows communications in both directions, but only one direction is active at a time
(not simultaneously).
• Full: Permits communications in both directions simultaneously.
To set the duplex mode:
1. From the front panel, press MENU key, and then select LAN > CONFIG > DUPLEX.
2. Turn the navigation wheel
to select either HALF or FULL.
3. Press the ENTER key.
4. Press the EXIT (LOCAL) key once to return to the LAN CONFIG menu.
5. Select APPLY_SETTINGS > YES, and then press the ENTER key.
