Connecting to the Interfaces
The Keysight N6700 MPS supports GPIB, LAN, and USB interfaces. All
three interfaces are live at power-on. Connect your interface cable to the
appropriate interface connector. Information on configuring the
interfaces is found later in this chapter.
The front panel IO indicator comes on whenever there is activity on the
remote interfaces. The front panel Lan indicator comes on when the LAN
port is connected and configured.
Power system mainframes provide Ethernet connection monitoring. With
Ethernet connection monitoring, the instrument’s LAN port is continually
monitored, and automatically reconfigured when the instrument is
unplugged for a minimum of 20 seconds and then reconnected to a
network.
