LAN Programming Interface Examples
NOTE The LAN programming examples in this section demonstrate the use of VXI- 11 and Sockets
LAN to control the signal generator.
To use these programming examples you must change references to the IP address and
hostname to match the IP address and hostname of your signal generator.
• “VXI-11 Programming Using SICL and C++” on page 118
• “VXI-11 Programming Using VISA and C++” on page 119
• “Sockets LAN Programming and C” on page 121
• “Sockets LAN Programming Using Java” on page 144
• “Sockets LAN Programming Using Perl” on page 146
• “TCP-IP (LAN) Programming Using Matlab” on page 147
For additional LAN programming examples that work with user- data files, refer to:
• “Save and Recall Instrument State Files” on page 365
VXI-11 Programming
The signal generator supports the VXI- 11 standard for instrument communication over the LAN
interface. Keysight IO Libraries support the VXI- 11 standard and must be installed on your computer
before using the VXI- 11 protocol. Refer to “Using VXI–11” on page 42 for information on configuring
and using the VXI- 11 protocol.
The VXI- 11 examples use TCPIP0 as the board address.
Using VXI-11 with GPIB Programs
The GPIB programming examples that use the VISA library, and are listed in “GPIB Programming
Interface Examples” on page 79, can be easily changed to use the LAN VXI- 11 protocol by changing the
address string. For example, change the "GPIB::19::INSTR" address string to "TCPIP::hostname::INSTR"
where hostname is the IP address or hostname of the signal generator. The VXI- 11 protocol has the
same capabilities as GPIB. See the section “Setting Up the LAN Interface” on page 32 for more
information.
NOTE To communicate with the signal generator over the LAN interface you must enable the
VXI- 11 SCPI service. For more information, refer to “Configuring the VXI–11 for LAN (Keysight
MXG)” on page 32 and “Configuring the VXI–11 for LAN (ESG/PSG)” on page 33.
