9. ETHERNET  
9.1 Connection  
When constructing the network system via the ETHER connector, use a STP cable  
conforming to 100BASE-TX standards.  
Use a straight cable when connecting the network via a hub. Use a cross cable when  
connecting a personal computer.  
Network manager should set the TCP/IP of this instrument according to your local network  
environments.  
9.2 Operating with Personal Computer  
Use the TELNET when remotely controlling the LG 3803 by using a commuter. To startup  
the TELNET, refer to the personal computer instruction manual.  
Starting TELNET with the Windows 2000  
Select TELNET from the START menu.  
When IP address assigned to the LG 3803 is "192.168.0.1," enter "TELNET  
192.168.0.1."  
The LG 3803 and TELNET is now connected.  
When TELNET is started, "login:" is displayed. Enter "lg3803."  
When "Password" is displayed, enter "lg3803."  
The login name and password cannot be changed.  
Prefix "rem" to the command listed in Tables 8-4 and 8-5 for run the system. Attach "?"  
after the command to read setting value.  
Example 1: When setting the frequency to 500 MHz, output level to -60 dBm,  
proceed as follows:  
rem RF 500 ENTER  
rem LM -60 ENTER  
is a space. Enter a space between header and data code.  
Example 2: When reading the channel being set, proceed as follows:  
rem CH ? ENTER  
Enter a space between header, data code, and "?."  
Notes on using Ethernet  
This instrument can be controlled via the Ethernet even when operating via the GPIB  
interface, or REMOTE CONTROL mode is in operation. When Ethernet is only used,  
disconnect other cables.  
Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation.  
Operation of this instrument is confirmed by using Windows 2000 (SP2), however, the
