Connecting the Instrument with computers
2.4 Connecting the Instrument with computers
Connecting the instruments with computers via a LAN cable allows computers to control and
monitor the instrument. Connect LAN cables to the 1000BASE-T connector of computers and
instrument. The procedures for connecting the cables (2 ways) are as follows.
(1) Connecting the instrument to the existing network
Connecting the instruments with a hub via LAN cables allows computers to control and monitor the
instruments.
Connecting one instrument to multiple PCs Connecting multiple instruments to one computer

*: Use one of the following cables:
• 1000BASE-T compatible crossover cable (maximum length: 100 m)
• 1000BASE-T straight-through cable and crossover connector (maximum length: 100 m)
• Model 9642 LAN Cable (optional, coming with crossover connector)
CAUTION
When connecting the instrument to your LAN using a LAN cable of more than 30 m or
with a cable laid outdoors, take appropriate countermeasures that include installing a
surge protector for LANs. Such signal wiring is susceptible to induced lighting, which
can cause damage to the instrument.

Preparing Storage Devices (Recording Media)
2.5 Preparing Storage Devices (Recording Media)
The storage device that can be used with the instrument are USB ash drives and a built-in drive.
Refer to “Handling storage devices” (p. 14).
USB ash drive
The instrument supports not all commercially available USB ash drives. You have to congure the
USB ash drive setting on the instrument to use USB ash drives.
Refer to “Formatting storage devices” (p. 59).
How to insert a USB ash drive
Align the USB ash drive with the connector, and fully insert it.
