11.6.2. Read the Hostname
The hostname (see section 4.5) may be read with this query
Syntax:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:HOST?
Example: SYST:COMM:LAN:HOST?
Response: The hostname string, up to 15 characters long
Example:
GEN7p5-1000-123 is a typical default hostname
11.6.3. Read the IP Address
The IP address (see section 4.4) may be read with this query
Syntax:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:IP?
Example: SYST:COMM:L A N:IP?
Response: The IP address string, up to 15 characters long
Example:
169.254.9.35 is a typical default IP address
11.6.4. Read the MAC Address
The MAC address may be read with this query
Syntax:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:MAC?
Example: SYST:COMM:LAN:MAC?
Response: The MAC address string, 17 characters long
Example:
00:19:f9:00:24:3b is a typical default IP address
11.6.5. Reset the LAN Settings
WARNING: Sending this command could disable the LAN connection to the power supply
This command will reset the LAN settings to the factory default state. The effect of this include changing
the IP address and hostname, so LAN communication could be lost.
Therefore, only use this command as a diagnostic tool. See section 5.3 for a description of the LAN reset
condition.
Syntax:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:RESet
Example: SYST:COMM:LAN:RES
11.6.6. Serial Command Pass-Through
The Genesys™ power supply RS-232/485 (serial) command set has several functions that cannot be
implemented by the LAN SCPI command set. For example, power supply calibration is done using the RS-
232 port, so the LAN port has no calibration commands.
The serial command pass-through allows any serial command to be sent through the LAN SCPI port.
The response message from a pass-through command is the same response as seen over the serial port.
Unlike the SCPI commands, all pass-through commands have a response message that may be read back.
Refer to the GenesysTM Technical Manual for a description of the RS-232 & RS-485 Remote Control command
set
For socket programs, you may not use a semi-colon terminator.
Syntax:
DIAGnostic:COMMunicate:PASSthrough <string>
Parameter: <string> is any RS-232/485 command or query
(no quotes are used to enclose the string)
