34410A/11A/L4411A User’s Guide 95
Remote Interface Configuration 3
• The factory–set default IP Address is “169.254.4.10”.
• If you are planning to use a static IP address on a corporate LAN, contact your
network administrator to obtain a fixed IP address to be used exclusively for your
instrument.
• The IP address is stored in non–volatile memory, and does not change when power
has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST) command, or after an Instrument Preset
(SYSTem:PRESet) command.
Subnet Mask
The multimeter uses the Subnet Mask to determine if a client IP address is on the same
local subnet. When a client IP address is on a different subnet, all packets must be sent to
the Default Gateway. Contact your network administrator to determine if subnetting is
being used and for the correct Subnet Mask.
• Changing the Subnet Mask setting will cause an automatic LAN reset.
• The default Subnet Mask for the 34410A/11A multimeter is “255.255.0.0”.
• A value of “0.0.0.0” or “255.255.255.255” indicates that subnetting is not being used.
• The Subnet Mask is stored in non–volatile memory, and does not change when power
has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST) command, or after an Instrument Preset
(SYSTem:PRESet) command.
Default Gateway
A Default Gateway address allows the multimeter to communicate with systems that are
not on the local subnet. Thus, this is the Default Gateway where packets are sent which
are destined for a device not on the local subnet, as determined by the Subnet Mask
setting. Contact your network administrator to determine if a gateway is being used and
for the correct address.
• Changing the Default Gateway setting will cause an automatic LAN reset.
• The default for the multimeter is “0.0.0.0” (no gateway, and subnetting is not being
used).
• The Default Gateway is stored in non–volatile memory, and does not change when
power has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST) command, or after an Instrument
Preset (SYSTem:PRESet) command.
