SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:HOSTname
Syntax
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:HOSTname "<name>"
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:HOSTname? [{CURRent | STATic}]
Description
This command assigns a host name to the instrument. The host name is the host portion of the domain
name, which is translated into an IP address.
If you change the host name, you must send the SYSTem:COMMu-
nicate:LAN:UPDate command to activate the new setting.
Parameters
Name Type Range of Values Default Value
<name> Quoted String A string of up to 15 characters. The
first character must be a letter (A-Z),
but the remaining 14 characters can
be letters, numbers (0-9), or dashes ("-
"). Blank spaces are not allowed.
This is a required parameter
Remarks
l If Dynamic Domain Name System (DNS) is available on your network and your instrument uses DHCP,
the host name is registered with the Dynamic DNS service at power-on.
l If DHCP is enabled (see SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:DHCP command), the DHCP server can change the
specified host name.
l For the query form, specify "CURRent" (default) to read the dynamic host name currently being used by
the instrument. Specify "STATic" to read the host name currently stored in non-volatile memory within
the instrument (may not be the actual name used by the instrument if DHCP is enabled).
l The host name 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).
l The host name is set to "A-53220A-nnnnn" (Keysight 53220A) or "A-532320A-nnnnn" (Keysight
53230A) where nnnnn is the last 5 digits of the instrument's serial number when the instrument is shipped
from the factory or after a SYSTem:SECurity:IMMediate command.
