How to connect with the computer through a router:
(1)
Connection
. Use a LAN cable to connect the Waveform Generator with a router, the
LAN port of the Waveform Generator is in the rear panel; the computer should be
connected to the router too.
(2)
Set the network parameters of the computer
. Since the Waveform Generator can
not support obtaining an IP address automatically, you should assign a static IP
address. The Default gateway and Subnet mask should be set according to the router.
Here we set the IP address to 192.168.1.71, Subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, Default
gateway is 192.168.1.1.
