Connecting to the instrument
Connecting to a network
You can connect your instrument to a network for file sharing, printing, Internet access, and other functions. Consult your network
administrator and use the standard Windows utilities to configure the instrument for your network.
Connecting peripheral devices
You can connect peripheral devices to your instrument, such as the keyboard and mouse (provided). A mouse and keyboard are
particularly helpful for opening and saving files.
Controlling the instrument using a remote PC
Use your PC to control the arbitrary waveform generator through a LAN using the Windows Remote Desktop function. If your PC
has a larger screen, it will be easier to see details such as zooming waveforms or making cursor measurements. You can also
use a third party software application (installed on your PC) to create a waveform and import it through a network.
Preventing instrument damage
Overheat protection
The instrument is protected against overheating damage by continuously monitoring the internal temperature. If the internal
temperature exceeds the maximum rated operating range, two actions occur.
■ The instrument shuts down.
■ The Power button flashes red.
NOTE. An indication that the internal temperature is escalating is continual calibration warnings due to temperature change.
If an overheat condition was detected, the power button will continue to flash red, even after the instrument cools (unless power
is disconnected). This is done to indicate that an overheat condition has occurred, regardless of how much time has passed.
Restarting the instrument (or removing and reapplying power) will stop the power button from flashing red. But if the overheat
condition still remains while attempting to restart the instrument, the power button may immediately (or in a short time) start
flashing red again and the instrument will shut down.
Common causes of overheating include:
■ The ambient temperature requirement is not being met.
■ The required cooling clearance is not being met.
■ One or more instrument fans are not working properly.
