Configuring the LAN Interface
2.30 Quick Start Guide 1302.6163.62 - 04
2.4.9 Installing Non-Plug&Play Printers
The procedure for installing non-plug&play printers is described in appendix A , section
“ Installing Non-Plug&Play Printers” on page A.6 .
2.5 Configuring the LAN Interface
The instrument can be connected to an Ethernet LAN (local area network) using the LAN
interface connector on the rear panel. This makes it possible to transfer data over the network
and to use network printers. In addition, the instrument can be remote-controlled via the
network. The network card can be operated with a 10 MHz Ethernet IEEE 802.3 or a 100 MHz
Ethernet IEEE 802.3u interface.
2.5.1 Connecting the Instrument to the Network
Connect a conventional RJ-45 cable (not supplied) to the rear panel of the instrument and a
network hub of the required LAN segment. Since the RJ-45 involves star configuration rather
than bus cabling, no special measures need to be taken.
Setting up the connection does not cause any problems on the network. Likewise,
disconnecting the instrument from the network does not cause any problems as long as no
data traffic to and from the instrument is in progress.
2.5.2 Configuring the Network Card
2.5.2.1 Driver Installation
Under Windows XP, network card drivers do not need to be installed separately.
All you need to do is connect the network cable to the LAN-Interface connector on the
instrument rear panel. Windows XP automatically detects the network connection and
activates the required drivers.
Before connecting the instrument to the network, consult your network administrator,
particularly in the case of large LAN installations. Connection errors may affect the entire
network.
