Connecting to a Network
You can connect your instrument to a network for printing, file sharing, internet access, and other functions. Consult with your
network administrator and use the standard Windows utilities to configure the instrument for your network.
For setting GPIB or LAN configuration, use the GPIB/LAN Configuration dialog box from System menu. See page 68.
Controlling the instrument using a remote PC
You can use your PC to control the arbitrary waveform generator through a LAN using the Windows Remote Desktop func-
tion. If your PC has a larger screen, you can edit waveforms easily using your keyboard and mouse. You can also use a
third party software installed on your PC to create a waveform and import it through a network.
