IP ADDR
IP address, a 32-bit binary number, is used to label address for each PC that uses TCP/IP protocol
for communication. Dot-mode decimal system is commonly used to represent an IP address, like
192.168.1.6.
Touch the IP address zone to be modified, the numerical keyboard will pop up. You can input the
desired address and press [ENTER] to finish the modification.
NOTE: Set the IP addresses on the instrument and PC to be in the same segment (that means, all
bits where the subnet mask bits are 1 must be the same for instrument and PC) but unique in the
remaining part.
4.3.3
SUBNET MASK
In TCP/IP protocol, SUBNET MASKS is used to judge whether all host computers are in the same
network segment.
NOTE: Set the subnet masks on the instrument and PC to be the same.

GATEWAY
A gateway is a network address that acts as an entrance to another network.
NOTE: Set the gateways on the instrument and PC to be the same.
