IEEE 802.3 NRZ Compliance Test Application Getting Started

Adding 86100D or N1000A to Keysight Connection Expert

Most of the measurements in the IEEE 802.3 NRZ Test Application use a supported DCA-X or DCA-M 

sampling oscilloscope.

Note that the Keysight I/O Library Suite must be installed before you proceed with connecting to the 

network analyzer. The user interface for Keysight Connection Expert 2017 (Version 18.0) and higher 

is slightly different from its previous versions, such as Version 17.2 or earlier.

Connection using Keysight Connection Expert v17.2 (or earlier)

1 On the 86100D Oscilloscope, launch the Keysight FlexDCA application.
2 From the FlexDCA’s main menu, click 

Help

 > 

About FlexDCA...

. The 

About 86100D

 dialog box 

appears.

3 In  the 

System Information

 area, scroll down to view the 

Computer Name

 entry.

Alternatively, you can obtain the computer name from the Windows 

System

 properties.

86100D Oscilloscope’s hostname

4 Record the Computer Name (corresponds to hostname) as you will need this name later in this 

procedure.

NOTE

This section lists the steps for 86100D DCA-X oscilloscope. Perform similar steps for the 

N1000A DCA-X oscilloscope.
