Using computer names
In a LAN that uses a DNS server (Domain Name System server), each PC or instru-
ment connected in the LAN can be accessed via an unambiguous computer name
instead of the IP address. The DNS server translates the host name to the IP address,
which is especially useful when a DHCP server is used, as a new IP address can be
assigned each time the instrument is restarted.
Each instrument is delivered with an assigned computer name, but this name can be
changed. The default instrument name is a case-insensitive string with the following
syntax:
ZNB<4|8|20|26|40|43>-<variant>-<serial_number>, ZNB40-N-<serial_number>
ZNBT8-8-<serial_number>, ZNBT<20|26|40>-1-<serial_number>
The serial number can be found on the rear panel of the instrument. It is the third part
of the device ID printed on the bar code sticker:
ZNB40-84-102030, or ZNBT40-1-102030, for example

Remote Desktop connection
Remote Desktop is a Windows
®
application which you can use to access and control
the analyzer from a remote computer through a LAN connection. While the measure-
ment is running, the analyzer screen contents are displayed on the remote computer,
and Remote Desktop provides access to all applications, files, and network resources
of the analyzer.
