Installation
10. After you have s et up the socket server
parameters, the computer is now ready to
communicate w
ith the oscilloscope. If you
are running an MS Windows PC, you could
run its default client Telnet, which has a
command inte
rface. One way to do this is
by typing “
Telnet” in the Run window. The
Telnet window will open on the PC.
NOTE. On MS Wi
ndows 7, you must first
enable Telnet in order for Telnet to work.
11. Start a terminal session between your
computer and your oscilloscope by typing in
an open com
mand with the oscilloscope’s
LAN address and port #.
You can obtain the LAN address by pushing
the Ether

the resulting LAN Settings side menu
item to view the resulting Ethernet and LXI
Settings
screen. You can obtain the port #
by pushing the Socket Server bottom menu
item and viewing the Curren t Port side
menu ite
m.
For example, if the oscilloscope IP address
was
123.45.67.89 and the post #
was the
default of 4000, you could open
a session by writing into the MS Windows
Telnet screen:
o 123.45.67.89 4000.
The osc
illoscope will send a help screen to the
computer when it has finished connecting.
