Using LAN
Controlling the Agilent 4294A
Controlling the Agilent 4294A
You can control the 4294A, if connected to LAN, from an external controller. The
communication between an external controller and the 4294A is achieved by means of
connecting sockets created by individual processes and by forming a network path between
the process of the external controller and that of the 4294A. The sockets are endpoint nodes
of network connection, and Port 23 and Port 5025 are ready for use as the sockets on the
4294A side. Port 23 is for interactive control using telnet (a user interface program based
on the TELNET protocol), and displays a welcome message (Welcome to the 4294A) when
connection is established. Port 5025 is prepared to be used from a program, and displays no
welcome message.
You can also control the 4294A, by use of the dynamic data disk and Instrument BASIC
programs described earlier.
Control by use of sockets
Interactive control by use of telnet
A control procedure that uses telnet is described here by taking up an example in which
you control the 4294A (IP address: 1.10.100.50, host name: hp4294a) from an external
computer installed in a Windows environment.
Step 1.
Start up the screen in which the MS-DOS prompt is ready.
Step 2.
At the MS-DOS prompt, type either
telnet 1.10.100.50
or
telnet hp4294a
,
and press the Return key.
Step 3.
The telnet screen is started up, and a welcome message “Welcome to the 4294A” appears
on the screen. (In a UNIX environment, a welcome message appears under the line in
which you typed
telnet 1.10.100.50
.)
Step 4.
Enter a command under the welcome message and press the Return key, then the command
is sent to the 4294A and run. Enter a Query command and press the Return key, then a
Query response is displayed. Figure 12-3 shows the screen that appears after you reset the
4294A by use of the “PRES” command (page 404), set the sweep start point and end point
to 10 MHz and 20 MHz respectively by use of the “STAR” command (page 444) and
“STOP” command (page 446), and checked these settings.
