Network Connection
Check with your network administrator before connecting the oscilloscope to a network. Incorrect addresses
on a network can cause both the network and the oscilloscope to behave strangely. However, a network
connection ought to be as simple as plugging the oscilloscope into the network. Proper connection can be verified by
following the verification instructions in the previous section.
If you are concerned mainly with system throughput, network connection is
not recommended
because the network traffic will slow down the oscilloscope’s data transfer rate.
Note: The default Gateway is assigned as "172.25.0.1". Unless your network has this Gateway
available, you must ensure that the computer and the oscilloscope are on the same subnet.
Changing IP Address Once the IP address is changed, the unit will no longer respond to the original address.
If the network settings are unknown or accidentally set to invalid values, they can be recovered by following the
procedure above.
