Now, you can enter any valid command for the specific instrument that you are controlling. You should see a response similar to the following:ħ. At the Telnet command line, type: open 5024 where is the instrument’s IP address and 5024 is the port. The Telnet display screen will be displayed.Ħ. On the computer, click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.Ĥ. See the specific instrument user’s guide for more information on LAN settings.ģ. This information is typically located in the System Information or IO menu. Verify that the Gateway, Subnet Mask, and IP address of the instrument are valid for the network you wish to use. Power on and connect the instrument to the network via LANĢ. The Windows operating systems use a command prompt style interface for the Telnet client.
Communication is interactive: one command at a time. You establish a connection with the instrument and then send or receive information using SCPI commands. Using the Telnet protocol to send commands to the instrument is similar to communicating with USB. Check the product page FAQs or with your local SIGLENT support office for more information.Ī connection, established between the computer and instrument, generates a user interface display screen with SCPI> prompts on the command line.
At this time, not all SIGLENT products feature open sockets. NOTE: The Telnet connection requires open sockets on the instrumentation. The Telnet client, run on a LAN connected computer, will create a login session on the instrument. Telnet provides a means of communicating over a LAN connection. Once the connection is verified, you can begin to work on the control software. In this note, we are going to show how to use Telnet to test the communications connection between an instrument and a remote computer using a LAN connection to ensure that it is working properly. This process normally goes quite smoothly, but if there are problems, there are some basic troubleshooting steps that can help get your test up-and-running quickly. NET, Python, etc.) to sequence the specific instrument commands and process data. Automating a setup involves connecting a computer to the test instrumentation using a standard communications bus like USB or LAN and then utilizing code entered via a software layer (like LabVIEW. Automating a test can dramatically increase the productivity, throughput, and accuracy of a process.
