LOCAL AREA NETWORK (LAN) OPTION

All power supplies functions are programmable over the LAN
(Ethernet) interface if the ENET/LAN option is installed (specified
at the time of order) The ENET/LAN interface, which operates
with auto detection, only supports 100Base-T.

Using LAN allows remote communication with the instrument; it
is fast, simple and the LAN from your PC does not require any
additional proprietary software or cards.

Media Access Control (MAC) Address

Each power source with the LAN option installed has a unique
network address known as the MAC address, a unique
hexadecimal address, which is listed on a rear panel label of the
power source. To operate the power source on a network, this
MAC address needs to be assigned to a TCP/IP address, which will
be used to address the device on the network.
