Getting Started
1. Load the VISA dr
ivers on your computer. Also, load your application, such
as OpenChoice Desktop. You will find the drivers and OpenChoice Desktop
software on the appropriate CD that comes with your oscilloscope or at the
Tektronix software finder Web page (www.tektronix.com\downloads).
2. Connect the oscilloscope to your computer with the appropriate USB or
Ethernet cable. To communicate between the oscilloscope and a GPIB system,
connect the oscilloscope to the TEK-USB-488 GPIB-to-USB Adapter with
a USB cable. Then connect the adapter to your GPIB system with a GPIB
cable. Cyc
le the power on the oscilloscope.
3. Push Utility.
4. Push Utility Page.
5. Turn multipurpose knob a and select I/O.
6. If you are using USB, the system sets itself up automatically for you, if USB is
enabled. Check USB on the lower menu to be sure that USB is enabled. If it is
not enabled, push USB. Then push Connect to Computer on the side menu.
7. To use Ethernet, push Ethernet & LXI on the lower menu. Use the side menu
buttons to adjust your network settings, as needed. For more information, see
the e*Scope setup information below.
8. If you want to change socket server parameters, push Socket Server and enter
new values through the resulting side menu.
9. If you are using GPIB, push GPIB. Enter the GPIB address on the side menu,
using multipurpose knob a. This will set the GPIB address on an attached
TEK
-USB-488 Adapter.
10. Run your application software on your computer.
Qu
ick Tips
Your oscilloscope shipped with a CD containing a variety of Windows-based
software tools for efficient connectivity between your oscilloscope and your
computer. These include toolbars that speed connectivity with Microsoft
E
xcel and Word. There are also two standalone acquisition programs called
NI LabVIEW SignalExpress™, Tektronix Edition and Tektronix OpenChoice
Desktop.
The rear-panel USB 2.0 high-speed (HS) device port is the correct USB port
for computer connectivity. Use the rear- and front-panel USB 2.0 host ports
to connect your oscilloscope to USB flash drives, hard drives, printers and
keyboards. Use the USB Device port to connect your oscilloscope to a PC or
a PictBridge printer.

Getting Started
Using th e LXI Web Page
and e*Scope
With e*Scope, y
ou can access any Internet-connected MSO/DPO4000B,
MDO4000/B/C or MDO3000 Series oscilloscope from a web browser. To set up
e*Scope communications between your oscilloscope and a Web browser running
on a remote computer:
1. Connect the oscilloscope to your computer network with an appropriate
Ethernet cable.
2. Push Utility.
3. Push Utility Page.
4. Turn multipurpose knob a and select I/O.
5. Push Ethernet & LXI.
6. On top of the side menu, there is an indicator light which turns green for
good status and red if the device detects a fault. Look at it to determine the
condition of the LAN.
7. Push LAN Settings to display the network parameters configured on your
oscilloscope.
8. Push LAN Reset to restore the LAN defaults to your oscilloscope.
9. Push Test Connection to check if your oscilloscope can find an attached
network.
10. Push More to see another page of side-menu items.
11. Push Change Names to change the name of the oscilloscope, the network
domain, or the service name.
12. Push Change Ethernet & LXI Password to use the LXI password to also
protect your oscilloscope from changes made to LAN settings from a Web
browser.
13. Start your browser on your remote computer. In the browser address line,
enter the host name, a dot, and the domain name together. Alternatively, just
enter the IP address of the instrument. Either way, you should then see the
LXI Welcome page on your Web browser on your computer screen.
14. Click “Network Configuration” to view and edit the network configuration
settings. If you are using a password and changing your settings, you need to
know that the default user name is “lxiuser”.
15. For e*Scope, click the Instrument Control (e*Scope) link on the left side of
the LXI Welcome page. You should then see a new tab (or window) open in
your browser with e*Scope running.
Using a Socket Server
A socket server provides two-way communication over an Internet Protocol-based
computer network. You can use your oscilloscope’s socket server feature tolet
your oscilloscope talk to a remote-terminal device or computer.

Getting Started
To set up and use
a socket server between your oscilloscope and a remote terminal
or computer:
1. Connect the os
cilloscope to your computer network with an appropriate
Ethernet cable.
2. Push Utilit
y.
3. Push Utility Page.
4. Turn multipurpose knob a and select I/O.
5. Push Socket Server.
6. On the resulting Socket Server side menu, push the top entry to highlight
Enabled.
7. Choose whether the protocol should be None or Te rm inal. A communication
session run by a human at a keyboard typically uses a terminal protocol.
An automated session might handle its own communications without using
such a protocol.
8. If required, change the port number by rotating multipurpose knob a.
9. If required, press OK to set the new port number.
10. After setting up the socket server parameters, you can now have the computer
“talk” to the oscilloscope. If you are running an MS Windows PC, you could
run its default client with its command-like interface. One way to do this is
by typing “
Telnet ” in the Run window. The Telnet window will open on
the
PC.
NOTE. On MS Windows 7, you must first enable Telnet in order for it to work.

.
St
art a terminal session between your computer and your oscilloscope by
typing in an open command with the oscilloscope's LAN address and port #.
You can obtain the LAN address by pushing the Ethernet & LXI bottom
menu item and the resulting LAN Settings side menu item to view the
resulting Ethernet and LXI Setting screen. You can obtain the port # by
pushing the Socket Server bottom menu item and viewing the Current Port
side menu item.
For example, if the oscilloscope IP address was
123.45.67.89 and the port
# was the default of
4000, you could open a session by writing into the MS
Windows Telnet screen:
o 123.4 5.67.89 4000
The oscilloscope will send a help screen to the computer when it is done
connecting.
