Modifying the LAN Settings
As shipped from the factory, the power system’s pre-configured settings should work in most LAN
environments. If you need to manually configure these settings, press the Menu key, then use the
navigation keys to select the LAN Modify menu. In the Modify menu you can then access the following
items: IP, Name, DNS, WINS, mDNS, and Services.
Refer to Non-Volatile Settings for information on the factory-shipped LAN settings.
IP Address
Front Panel Menu Reference SCPI Command
Select System\IO\LAN\Modify\IP
Select Auto or Manual. See below for a full description.
Not available
l Auto - This parameter automatically configures the addressing of the instrument. When selected,
the instrument will first try to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server. If a DHCP server is found,
the DHCP server will assign an IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway to the instrument.
If a DHCP server is unavailable, the instrument will try to obtain an IP address using AutoIP.
AutoIP automatically assigns an IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway addresses on net-
works that do not have a DHCP server. (The letters DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol, a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic
addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network.)
l Manual - This parameter allows you to manually configure the addressing of the instrument by
entering values in the following three fields. These fields only appear when Manual is selected.
l IP Address - This value is the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the instrument. An IP address is
required for all IP and TCP/IP communications with the instrument. An IP Address consists of 4
decimal numbers separated by periods. Each decimal number ranges from 0 through 255 with no
leading zeros (for example, 169.254.2.20).
l Subnet Mask - This value is used to enable the instrument to determine if a client IP address is on
the same local subnet. The same numbering notation applies as for the IP Address. When a client
IP address is on a different subnet, all packets must be sent to the Default Gateway.
l DEF Gateway - This value is the IP Address of the default gateway that allows the instrument to
communicate with systems that are not on the local subnet, as determined by the subnet mask
setting. The same numbering notation applies as for the IP Address. A value of 0.0.0.0 indicates
that no default gateway is defined.
