5.7.4.4 IP Addresses
The simplest and most reliable way to open a network connection is via the Power Supply’s IP
address, which is represented by a group of four numbers separated by periods (i.e.
10.1.15.123).
The Power Supply can receive an IP address in three modes:
DHCP
Auto-IP
Static IP
IP Mode Select
DHCP is default
after “LAN Reset”
Default after “LAN
Reset” if no
DHCP server is used
Assigned on the LAN Modify” web page (refer to
section 5.7.6.6 or by setting the IP1-
4 address via
the front panel (refer to section 2.7) or by
communication SYSTem[:COMMunicate]:LAN:IP
<SRD> command (refer to section 5.14.10).
Assignment
Assigned by the
network server
Assigned by the
Power Supply
Assigned on the LAN Modify web page (refer to
section 5.7.6.6) or by setting the IP1-4 address
via the front panel (section 2.7
) or by
communication SYSTem[:COMMunicate]:LAN:IP
<SRD> command (refer to section 5.14.10).
Range
Any address
169.254.xxx.xxx
Any address
Lifetime
Address may
change as the
DHCP server
assigns addresses
dynamically to
many instruments.
Fixed prefix for the
Power Supply,
except if an address
collision is detected.
Always fixed for the Power Supply.
Duplicate
Addresses
The DHCP server
should prevent
duplication of IP
addresses
Finds another
available auto-IP
address
Returns to original IP (before change).
LAN status LED (Green) and front panel blink.
If duplication of IP is detected at AC ON (if the
device was in Static IP mode), the IP goes to
0.0.0.0, LAN status LED (Red) turns on and the
Front Panel blinks.
5.7.4.5 Hostname
The hostname is an address in the form of name instead of IP address (i.e. G10-40). This address
mode is less common than the IP address because the hostname cannot be viewed from the front
panel, and because a naming service (such as NetBIOS or DNS) must be running in the LAN
computer.
The default hostname has the following format:
< Product Series Name> < Voltage rating > – < Current rating >.
