Connection and Setting

2.1 Overview of Communication

You can control the instrument with communication commands from a computer via the USB, GP-IB, RS­232C and LAN interfaces. There are the following four communication methods. To enable communication, the communication conditions need to be set on the instrument.
USB communication (p. 7)
The instrument is communication class compatible.
LAN communication (p. 9)
2
Command control using the TCP/IP protocol is possible.
GP-IB communication (when the Z3000 is connected) (p. 14)
• Commands common to IEEE-488-2 1987 (requirement) can be used.
• The instrument has been designed with reference to the following standard. (Reference standard: IEEE-488.2 1987)
RS-232C communication (when the Z3001 is connected) (p. 16)
WARNING
• Always turn both devices OFF when connecting and disconnecting an interface connector. Otherwise, an electric shock accident may occur.
• To avoid damage to the instrument, do not short-circuit the terminal and do not input voltage to the terminal.
Failure to fasten the connectors properly may result is sub-specication performance or damage to the equipment.

2.2 USB Settings and Connection

USB Settings and Connection
To connect the instrument to a computer the rst time
Before connecting the instrument to the computer, install the USB driver. The USB driver can be downloaded from the bundled CD, or our web site. ( The USB driver is compatible with the Windows Vista (32-bit, 64-bit version), Windows 7 (32-bit,64-bit version), Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit version) and Windows 10 (32-bit, 64-bit version) operating systems. Additionally, do not put the computer into the sleep state while the instrument is connected to the computer.
a dedicated USB driver must be installed.

CAUTION
• To avoid faults, do not disconnect or reconnect the USB cable during instrument operation.
• Connect the instrument and the computer to a common earth ground. Using different grounds could result in potential difference between the instrument and the computer. Potential difference on the USB cable can result in malfunctions and faults.
• Do not disconnect or connect other USB devices from or to, respectively, PC during USB communications between instrument and computer. The USB communications between instrument and PC may stop.

2.3 LAN Settings and Connection

LAN Settings

You can perform command control using the TCP/IP protocol. Set the instrument to match your network environment in advance.
• Make these settings before connecting to a network. Changing settings while connected can duplicate IP addresses of other network devices, and incorrect address information may otherwise be presented to the network.
• The instrument does not support DHCP (automatic IP address assignment) on a network.
Setting Items
Identies each device connected on a network.
IP address
Subnet mask
Each network device must be set to a unique address. The instrument supports IP version 4, with IP addresses indicated as four decimal octets, e.g.,“192.168.0.1”.
This setting is for separating the IP address into the network address that indicates the network and the host address that indicates the instrument. On this instrument, the subnet mask is represented as four decimal numbers separated by “. “ such as “255.255.255.0.”

Example 1. Connecting the instrument to an existing network
Example 1. Connecting the instrument to an existing network When connecting the instrument to an existing network in advance. An IP address which is not the same as that of another network device needs to be assigned.
Conrm the following items with the network administrator
IP Address _________._________._________._________ Subnet Mask _________._________._________._________ Default Gateway _________._________._________._________
Example 2. Connecting multiple instruments to a single computer using a hub
When building a local network with no outside connection, the following private IP addresses are recommended. Example of private IP address:
IP Address.....................Computer: 192.168.0.100
Subnet Mask..................255.255.255.0
Default Gateway.............OFF(0.0.0.0)...
Example 3. Connecting one instrument to a single computer using the 9642 LAN Cable
The 9642 LAN Cable can be used with its supplied connection adapter to connect one instrument to one computer, in which case the IP address is freely settable. Use the recommended private IP addresses.
IP Address.....................Computer: 192.168.0.100
Subnet Mask..................255.255.255.0
Default Gateway....OFF(0.0.0.0)
IP address species the device to serve as the gateway between the networks.
If the computer and instrument are connected one-to-one, no gateway is used, and the instrument’s default setting “0.0.0.0” can be kept as is.
