Ethernet Communications
(See chapter 13 for the procedure)
A LAN interface with auto switching between 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps. You can assign a
static address for the IP address or obtain an address dynamically from a DHCP server.
The following four functions are available.
Command Control Using VXI-II
An Ethernet standard VXI-11 device driver. Allows command control from a VISA library.
Panel Control Using a Browser
(See section 13.5 for the procedure)
A Web server function. Allows you to display the front panel image of the GS820 and
remotely control the GS820 on a Web browser.
File Transfer with FTP Clients
Up to five clients can establish FTP connections by way of the anonymous FTP server
function. The non-volatile storage (GS820ROM) and volatile storage (GS820RAM)
can be handled as a PC file server. Program files and the like can be transferred and
measurement result data can be loaded into your PC via the FTP protocol.
For a description of GS820ROM and GS820RAM, see “USB Storage Function” on page
2-36.
Command Control Using Port 7655
A command mnemonic stream parsing server that can connect up to five clients. The
terminator (CR, LF, or CR+LF) can be specified.
Each server function is independent. Therefore, for example, the GS820 can be
controlled using commands while transferring files using FTP.
GP-IB Communications
(See chapter 14 for the procedure)
An interface used to control the GS820 using commands. You can specify the same
settings as you would using the front panel keys of the GS820 and output setup data and
measured data. Because the command control of the GS820 is mutually independent,
other communication functions can be used while controlling the GS820 using the GP-IB.
RS-232 Communications
(See chapter 15 for the procedure)
An interface used to control the GS820 using commands. You can specify various
parameters such as baud rate (9600 bps to 115200 bps), flow control (none, XON-OFF,
or CTS-RTS), and terminator (CR, LF, or CR+LF). Because the command control of
the GS820 is mutually independent, other communication functions can be used while
controlling the GS820 using the RS-232.
Saving and Loading Setup Data
(See sections 11.1 and 11.2 for the procedure)
The current settings can be saved to a setup file (Setup1.txt to Setup4.txt) on the non-
volatile storage (GS820ROM). The saved setup data can be loaded to restore the
settings. The setup data can also be saved to the volatile storage (GS820RAM). This
feature can be used to pass the setup file (Setup.txt) to your PC.
The setup file is a text file containing communication commands. The file can be edited
later on your PC.
