Selecting a LAN interface protocol
This section provides details about how to select a remote interface protocol to connect to the Series
2600B. The Series 2600B provides three LAN interfaces with three associated LAN protocols (each
interface uses a different protocol). Select the interface based on the protocol needed. The dead
socket termination interface (DST) is provided to solve connection problems; it is not a protocol
choice.
VXI-11 connection
This remote interface is similar to GPIB and supports message boundaries, serial poll, and service
requests (SRQs). A VXI-11 driver or NI-VISA
TM
software is required. Test Script Builder (TSB) uses
NI-VISA and can be used with the VXI-11 interface. You can expect a slower connection with this
protocol.
