Section 2. Getting started
Connecting over a wired network
Follow these steps to connect to an instrument that has a wired connection, either
directly to your computer or to a local area network.
1
Connect a network cable between the instrument and your local network
Install a network cable between the instrument and a vacant network port on your
local network or directly to your computer's network port (the instrument and your
computer must be on the same network). The instrument will indicate that it is on a
network by displaying the network icon (
) and the network-assigned IP address. If
your local network also has Wi-Fi, you can connect to the instrument over the wire-
less network.
2
Enter the hostname or IP address in a web browser address bar
Both the hostname (which is the instrument serial number) and IP address are given
on the display. Type one or the other into the address bar:
l
Hostname: Enter
tg10-nnnnn.local.
where
tg10-nnnnn
is the hostname (and
the serial number) of your instrument.
l
Dynamic IP address on the display panel if the network cable is connected.
3 Press
Enter
to connect.
If you are unable to connect, see troubleshooting Connection problems on page 5-1.
