LAN/GPIB Gateway for Windows®

Getting Started

Using This Poster. Use Step 1 through Step 4 to install and configure the E5810A

LAN/GPIB Gateway for Windows. If you want to program GPIB and/or RS-232

instruments using your PC or you want to use the Agilent IO Libraries (VISA, VISA

COM, and SICL), also do Step 5 through Step 8.

NOTE

If you have difficulty installing the E5810A, see Troubleshooting Information on the

back of this poster. For additional information on any of the steps on this poster, see

the E5810A LAN/GPIB Gateway for Windows User's Guide.

Check Your Shipment Items. In addition to this poster, your E5810A LAN/GPIB

Gateway shipment should include the items listed. If items are missing or damaged,

contact Agilent Technologies. See E5810A General Information on the back of this

poster for addresses.

Check Your PC/Web Browser. The E5810A LAN/GPIB

Gateway is supported ONLY on Windows XP/Vista/7/8/Server

2008 R2. To communicate with the E5810A from your Web

Browser, you will need Internet Explorer 5.01 or higher (Microsoft Internet Explorer 7

or higher recommended for Vista).

Rack-Mount the E5810A (Optional). As desired, you can mount the E5810A in a

standard EIA rack using the E5810-00100 Rack Mount Kit (or equivalent). The

E5810A is one standard half-rack unit wide and one standard rack unit high. See the

E5810-00100 Rack Mount Kit for instructions.

1 Before You Connect the E5810A

Connect the E5810A to the Network and to Instruments. This figure shows

typical network and instrument connections for the E5810A. Make connections as

required for your application. See the E5810A LAN/GPIB Gateway for Windows

User's Guide for detailed connections.

IMPORTANT

BEFORE making any Enterprise (corporate) network connections, contact your

Information Technology (IT) department for policies concerning user connections, IP

addresses, etc. See Contacting Your IT Department on the back of this poster for

suggested actions.

Apply Power to the E5810A. Plug the E5810A power cord into the E5810A POWER

socket. Then, plug the cord into an AC outlet and observe the E5810A display. After

an initial setup period, the E5810A IP address and hostname (if recognized) should

appear on the display. If the IP address does not appear, see Troubleshooting

Information on the back of this poster.

The following steps describe installing the Agilent IO Libraries Suite, using default

settings, including:

zChecking for Installed Agilent IO Libraries or Agilent IO Libraries Suite

zInstalling Agilent IO Libraries Suite

ngbbgbInsert the CD.

NOTE

See the Agilent IO Libraries Connectivity Guide on your Automation-Ready CD for a

full description of installation options and installation troubleshooting information. You

MUST have Administrator priviledges to install the Agilent IO Libraries Suite.

Checking for Installed Agilent IO Libraries.

Before you begin installation, check for previously installed Agilent IO Libraries soft-

ware. If a version of the Agilent IO Libraries Suite is installed on your PC, an IO icon

may be displayed on the Windows taskbar notification area.

5 Install Agilent IO Libraries Suite

NOTE

PCs installed with Windows Vista/7/8 MUST upgrade to Agilent IO Libraries v15.0

or above.

1. If the IO icon is displayed, click the icon and click About Agilent IO Control to

display the version. The version must be 15.0 or greater.

2. If the IO icon is not displayed, a version may still be installed. To check this, click

Start >Programs and look for the Agilent IO Libraries or Agilent IO Libraries

Suite program group.

3. If this group is displayed, click Agilent IO Libraries > Utilities > IO Control to

display the IO icon. Then, click the icon and click About Agilent IO Libraries

Control to display the installed version (must be 15.0 or greater).

4. If neither the IO icon nor the Agilent IO Libraries program group is displayed,

Agilent IO Libraries is not installed. Locate the Automation-Ready CD and install

Agilent IO Libraries.

5. If the Agilent IO Libraries Suite version is less than 15.0, install the newer version

included on your Automation-Ready CD to support the E5810A.

6. If your version of the Agilent IO Libraries Suite is at least 15.0, but less than the

version on your Automation-Ready CD, you may want to install the newer version

to take advantage of new features and greater ease of use.

Installing Agilent IO Libraries Suite . First, disconnect any USB instruments, USB/

GPIB converters, and FireWire-VXI interfaces that are connected to your PC. Insert

the Automation-Ready CD into your CD-ROM drive. Wait for a few seconds until the

auto-run window appears. If the auto-run window does not appear automatically, Click

Start > Run then type <x>:autorun\auto.exe where <x> is your CD drive letter. When

the auto-run window appears, follow the directions on that window to install the Agi-

lent IO Libraries Suite. (See Agilent IO Libraries Connectivity Guide on your Automa-

tion-Ready CD for a full description of installation options and installation

troubleshooting information).

NOTE

If possible, always use the current version of the Agilent IO Libraries Suite.

This version supports the newest interfaces and operating systems.

5 Install Agilent IO Libraries Suite (cont.)

Add Remote GPIB Interface. To configure the interface for GPIB instruments, in the

Agilent Connection Expert main screen click Add Interface and select Remote GPIB

interface to display the Remote GPIB Interface dialog box.

to locate E5810s on local

subnet.

1b. Or, type hostname or

IP address shown on the

E5810 display.

2. Change this value to the

GPIB SICL Interface Name

displayed on the E5810A

Welcome Page (see Step 3).

3. Test Connection to

verify connectivity and

configuration.

6 Add Remote GPIB Interface

Add Remote Serial Interface. To configure the interface for RS-232 serial

instruments, in the Agilent Connection Expert main screen click Add Interface and

select Remote RS-232 serial interface to display the Remote RS-232 Serial

Interface dialog box.

1a. Click Find Interfaces...

to locate E5810s on local

subnet.

1b. Or, type hostname or

IP address shown on the

E5810 display.

2. Change this value to the

RS-232 SICL Interface

Name displayed on the

E5810A Welcome Page

(see Step 3).

3. Test Connection to

verify connectivity and

configuration.

7 Add Remote RS-232 Serial Interface

Use Interactive IO to Communicate with Instruments. After you have configured

remote GPIB and/or remote serial interfaces, you can use Interactive IO to establish

communication between your PC and your GPIB or RS-232 instruments. To run

Interactive IO for an IEEE-488.2 compliant instrument:

1. Click the instrument's icon in the Connection Expert window.

2. Click Send Commands To This Instrument to display Interactive IO.

3. With the default command, *IDN?, displayed in the text box, click the Send &

Read button.

4. The instrument identification string should appear.

5. Repeat Steps 1 - 4 for the next instrument.

Program Instruments (Optional). After communication has been established, you

can program your GPIB and RS-232 instruments using VISA, VISA COM, or SICL.

See E5810A Documentation/Support on the back of this poster for applicable

documentation.
