INSTALLATION

Oscilloscope Option Key Installation

An option key must be purchased to enable the QPHY-USB option. Call LeCroy Customer Support to place an
order and receive the code.

Enter the key and enable the purchased option as follows:

1. From the oscilloscope menu select Utilities

Utilities Setup...

2. Select the Options tab and click the Add Key button.

3. Enter the Key Code using the on-screen keyboard.

4. Restart the oscilloscope to activate the option after installation.

Typical (Recommended) Configuration

QualiPHY software can be executed from the oscilloscope or a host computer. The first step is to install QualiPHY.
Please refer to the QualiPHY Operator’s Manual for installation instructions.

LeCroy recommends running QualiPHY on an oscilloscope equipped with Dual Monitor Display capability (Option
DMD-1 for oscilloscopes where this is not standard). This allows the waveform and measurements to be shown
on the oscilloscope LCD display while the QualiPHY application and test results are displayed on a second
monitor.

By default, the oscilloscope appears as a local host when QualiPHY is executed in the oscilloscope. Follow the
steps under Oscilloscope Selection (as follows) and check that the IP address is 127.0.0.1.

Remote (Network) Configuration

It is also possible to install and run QualiPHY on a host computer, controlling the oscilloscope with a Network/LAN
Connection.

The oscilloscope must already be configured, and an IP address (fixed or network-assigned) must already be
established.

Oscilloscope Selection

Set up the oscilloscope using QualiPHY over a LAN (Local Area Network) by doing the following:

1. Make sure the host computer is connected to the same LAN as the oscilloscope. If unsure, contact

your system administrator.

2. From the oscilloscope menu, select Utilities

Utilities Setup…

3. Select the Remote tab.

4. Verify the oscilloscope has an IP address and the control is set to TCP/IP.

5. Run QualiPHY in the host computer and click the General Setup button.

6. Select the Connection tab.

7. Enter the IP address from step 4 (previous).

8. Click the Close button.

QualiPHY is now ready to control the oscilloscope.
