GPIB-ENET Installation and Configuration under Windows NT

Hardware: GPIB>>External Controllers/Convertors>>GPIB-ENET

Problem:
How do I install and configure my GPIB-ENET in Windows NT?

Solution:
  1. Be sure that you installed the GPIB-ENET on the network on the same subnet (hub) as your computer and connected the power cable.

  2. If your GPIB-ENET has not yet been assigned an IP address, then you must assign an IP address to it.

  3. Go to Start » Settings » Control Panel and open the GPIB Configuration Utility, which will launch the GPIB Configuration window:


  4. Click the Board Type button and select GPIB-ENET, as shown below:


    Click OK.

  5. Click the Configure button in the GPIB Configuration window. This will open a GPIB# (GPIB-ENET) window, like this one:


  6. Enter the IP address of the GPIB-ENET in the Host Name field and click OK. This will configure your computer to communicate with the GPIB-ENET.

  7. Click OK in the GPIB Configuration window.

  8. You are now ready to connect instruments to the GPIB-ENET and communicate with them. See the Introduction to the Interactive Control (IBIC) page for more information.
