Supported remote interfaces
The 2600B supports the following remote interfaces:
• USB: Communicate with the instrument over a USB connection.
• LAN: Local area network (LAN) communications provide the flexibility to build scalable and
functional test or data acquisition systems with a large degree of flexibility.
• GPIB: General purpose interface bus is an IEEE-488 instrumentation data bus.
• RS-232: Communicate with the instrument over the serial port or with another instrument using its
serial port.
The 2600B can be controlled from only one communication interface at a time. The first interface
from which it receives a message takes control of the instrument. It ignores the other interfaces until
the instrument is returned to local operation.
For more information about the remote interfaces, see:
• USB communications (on page 8-39)
• LAN communications (on page 8-40) and LAN concepts and settings (on page 8-40)
