N4865A INSTALLATION GUIDE
The following steps should be used as a guide to setting up and using your
N4865A.
Note - The N4865A is only confi gured through its Ethernet port
with a Web Browser.
1. The factory set N4865A defaults to an auto IP address of 169.254.48.65
if not connected to a DHCP server. If the companion LAN oscilloscope
has an IP address in the range of 169.254.xxx.xxx it should successfully
communicate with the N4865A without any changes to either’s IP settings.
If the oscilloscope has an IP address outside of the N4865A’s range, either
the N4865A or the oscilloscope needs to have its IP address changed. See
paragraphs 3.1.1 and 2.5.
2. The N4865A’s factory GPIB address is 4.
3. If the N4865A’s settings are okay, skip step 3. Else use a Web Browser
to confi gure the N4865A’s network and/or GPIB settings as directed in
paragraph 2.5. If you are resetting the oscilloscope’s IP address, do not
set the oscilloscope to the N4865A’s own IP address.
3. If the N4865A is to be rack mounted, turn the N4865A off and discon-
nect all cables from the N4865A. Follow the instructions in Section 2.8
to install the N4865A in the rack mounting kit. Mount the rack mount
assembly in the equipment rack.
4. After confi guration, the N4865A can be connected to its companion LAN
oscilloscope with the supplied Ethernet crossover cable as shown in Figure
2-1. Plug the Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 receptacle on the N4865A’s
rear panel and to the oscilloscope’s RJ-45 connector. Use a GPIB Cable
to connect the N4865A to the GPIB Controller.
