Chapter 1 Specifications
XON/XOFF control:
•When the data in the receive buffer exceeds 75% of
the buffer, XOFF(13H) is sent and the controller is
notified that there is not much space remaining in the
buffer.
•Processing of the data in the buffer continues, and
then XON(11H) is sent and the controller is notified
that there is sufficient remaining space in the buffer
when the amount of data becomes less than 25%.
XON/XOFF control:
•When XOFF is received, the sending of data is halted. When XON is received, the sending of data is
resumed.

2.1 Overview of Communication
5
Chapter 2 Connection and Setting
You can control the instrument with communication commands from a computer via the USB, GP-IB, RS-
232C and LAN interfaces.
There are the following four communication methods. To enable communication, the communication condi-
tions need to be set on the instrument.
The instrument is communication class compatible.
Command control using the TCP/IP protocol is possible.
• Commands common to IEEE-488-2 1987 (requirement) can be used.
• The instrument has been designed with reference to the following standard. (Reference standard:
IEEE-488.2 1987)
Connection and
Setting Chapter 2
2.1 Overview of Communication
• Always turn both devices OFF when connecting and disconnecting an interface
connector. Otherwise, an electric shock accident may occur.
• To avoid damage to the instrument, do not short-circuit the terminal and do not
input voltage to the terminal.
• Failure to fasten the connectors properly may result is sub-specification perfor-
mance or damage to the equipment.

Chapter 2 Connection and Setting
The display will vary with the installed options.
2.2 USB Settings and Connection
Setting USB
To connect the instrument to a computer the first time, a dedicated USB driver must be installed.
Before connecting the instrument to the computer, install the USB driver.
The USB driver can be downloaded from the bundled CD, or our web site.(http://www.hioki.com)
The USB driver is compatible with the Windows Vista (32-bit, 64-bit version), Windows 7 (32-bit,
64-bit version), Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit version) and Windows 10 (32-bit, 64-bit version) operating
systems.
Additionally, do not put the computer into the sleep state while the instrument is connected to the
computer.
You can configure the setting from any of mode and mode.

• To avoid faults, do not disconnect or reconnect the USB cable during instrument
operation.
• Connect the instrument and the computer to a common earth ground. Using differ-
ent grounds could result in potential difference between the instrument and the
computer. Potential difference on the USB cable can result in malfunctions and
faults.
• Do not disconnect or connect other USB devices from or to, respectively, PC during
USB communications between instrument and computer. The USB communica-
tions between instrument and PC may stop.

2.3 LAN Settings and Connection
9
Chapter 2 Connection and Setting
You can perform command control using the TCP/IP protocol.
Set the instrument to match your network environment in advance.
Example 1. Connecting the instrument to an existing network
When connecting the instrument to an existing network, the network settings need to be confirmed in
advance.
An IP address which is not the same as that of another network device needs to be assigned.
Confirm the following items with the network administrator, and write them down.
Example 2. Connecting multiple instruments to a single computer using a hub
When building a local network with no outside connection, the following private IP addresses are recom-
mended.
Example of private IP address:
IP Address ...............Computer: 192.168.0.100
Instrument: 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3...
(Set an IP address that differs from that of other network devices.)
Subnet Mask............255.255.255.0
Default Gateway ......OFF(0.0.0.0)
Example 3. Connecting one instrument to a single computer using the 9642 LAN Cable
The 9642 LAN Cable can be used with its supplied connection adapter to connect one instrument to one
computer, in which case the IP address is freely settable. Use the recommended private IP addresses.
IP Address ...............Computer: 192.168.0.100
Instrument: 192.168.0.1 (Set to a different IP address than the computer.)
Subnet Mask............255.255.255.0
Default Gateway ......OFF(0.0.0.0)
2.3 LAN Settings and Connection
LAN Settings
• Make these settings before connecting to a network. Changing settings while connected can
duplicate IP addresses of other network devices, and incorrect address information may other-
wise be presented to the network.
• The instrument does not support DHCP (automatic IP address assignment) on a network.
Setting Items
IP address
Identifies each device connected on a network.
Each network device must be set to a unique address.
The instrument supports IP version 4, with IP addresses indicated as four decimal octets, e.g.,
"192.168.0.1".
Subnet mask This setting is for separating the IP address into the network address that indicates the network and the host address that indicates the instrument. On this instrument, the subnet mask is represented as
four decimal numbers separated by ". " such as "255.255.255.0."
Default Gateway
When the computer and instrument are on different but overlapping networks (subnets), this IP ad-
dress specifies the device to serve as the gateway between the networks.
If the computer and instrument are connected one-to-one, no gateway is used, and the instrument's
default setting "0.0.0.0" can be kept as is.
