13.6.1.3 How to Change the Instrument Name

In a LAN that uses a DNS server (Domain Name System server), each PC or instru-

ment connected in the LAN can be accessed via an unambiguous computer name

instead of the IP address. The DNS server translates the host name to the IP address.

This is especially useful when a DHCP server is used, as a new IP address may be

assigned each time the instrument is restarted.

Each instrument is delivered with an assigned computer name, but this name can be

changed.

To change the instrument's computer name

1. Press the [Setup] key and then the "Network + Remote" softkey.

The current "Computer Name" is displayed in the "Network" tab.

2. Enter the new computer name and close the dialog box.

The configuration is saved, and you are prompted to restart the instrument.

3. Confirm the displayed message ("Yes" button) to restart the instrument.

13.6.1.4 How to Configure the LAN Using the LXI Web Browser Interface

The instrument's LXI browser interface works correctly with all W3C compliant brows-

ers.

► In the web browser, open the http://<instrument-hostname> or http://

<instrument-ip-address> page, e.g. http://10.113.10.203.

The default password to change LAN configurations is LxiWebIfc.

The "Instrument Home Page" (welcome page) opens.
