21.2.3 Using computer names
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.
The default instrument name is a non-case-sensitive string with the following syntax:
<Type><variant>-<serial_number>
The serial number can be found on the rear panel of the instrument. It is the third part
of the device ID printed on the bar code sticker:
To change the device name
1. Open the "Menu" > "Settings" dialog.
2. Open the "System" dialog.
3. Select the "Network" tab.
4. Enter the new "Device name" and confirm the entry.
