Use the LXI Discovery Tool
To find the IP address of the 2601B-PULSE from a computer, use the LXI Discovery Tool, a utility that
is available from the Resources tab of the LXI Consortium website (lxistandard.org).
LAN status LEDs
The figure below illustrates the two status light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that are on the LAN port of the
instrument. The table below the figure provides explanations of the LED states. The LED labeled 1
indicates the LAN port is connected to a 100 Mbps network. The LED labeled 2 indicates the LAN
port is connected to a 10 Mbps network.

Selecting a LAN interface protocol
You can use a remote interface protocol to connect to the 2601B-PULSE. The 2601B-PULSE
provides Telnet, VXI-11, and raw socket LAN interfaces, with associated LAN protocols (each
interface uses a different protocol). Select the interface based on the protocol needed.
You can also use a dead socket termination interface (DST) to troubleshoot connection problems.
You can only use one remote interface at a time. Although multiple ethernet connections to the
instrument can be opened, only one can be used to control the instrument at a time.
