explains how to select and configure the Ethernet.

•

Front panel aspects of Ethernet operation

— Summarizes error messages, status

indicators, and using the LOCAL key.

•

Programming syntax

— Describes the basic programming syntax for both

common and SCPI commands.

•

RS-232 interface operation

— Outlines use of the RS-232 interface to control the
