For description on how to terminate work and shut down the instrument regularly, see
Chapter 3.10, "Switching on or off", on page 25.
11.10 How to use computer names
If there is a name server in the network, alternatively to the IP address each PC or
instrument connected in a LAN can be accessed via an unambiguous computer name.
Each instrument is delivered with an assigned computer name, but this name can be
changed.
For instruction on how to find out the default computer name, refer to Chapter 8.4.3,
"Finding out the default hostname of the instrument", on page 78.
To query and change a computer name
To avoid violations and to use easy identification provided by the computer name, we
recommend that you to keep the default hostname unchanged.
1. Open "SGMA-GUI > Instrument Name > Setup > Network Settings" dialog.
The computer name is displayed under "Hostname".
2. Select "SGMA-GUI > Instrument Name > Setup > Protection"
3. Enable the "Protection Level 1".
The parameter "Hostname" in the "Network Settings" dialog is now enabled for
configuration.
4. Change the "Hostname".
5. Press the [POWER ON/STANDBY] key to restart the instrument.
Note: The "Factory Preset" function restores the factory value of the parameter
"Hostname".
11.11 How to optimize performance
In its (factory) preset state, the instrument uses predefined frequency and level setting
designed for best performance. The predefined settings, e.g. the" Level modes" "Auto"
and "Normal", ensure that the instrument automatically selects the optimal settings
according to the configured RF frequency and level.
However, in some special application cases it can be necessary to choose different
settings or to optimize the signal for the particular application. This section describes
instructions on how to achieve that.
