1.2 USB Interface Functions and Specifications
Switching between Remote and Local Modes
When Switching from Local to Remote Mode
If the DL6000/DLM6000 receives a “:COMMunicate:REMote ON” command from the PC when it is
in the local mode, it switches to the remote mode.
• REMOTE is displayed in the center of the upper section of the screen.
• All keys except the SHIFT + CLEAR key are disabled.
• Settings entered in local mode are retained even when the DL6000/DLM6000 switches to remote
mode.
When Switching from Remote to Local Mode
Pressing SHIFT + CLEAR in remote mode puts the instrument in local mode. However, this is void
when the DL6000/DLM6000 has received a “:COMMunicate:LOCKout ON” command from the PC
(local lockout condition). When the DL6000/DLM6000 receives a “:COMMunicate:REMote OFF”
command from the PC, the DL6000/DLM6000 switches to the local mode regardless of the local
lock condition.
•REMOTE indication in the center of the upper section of the screen disappears.
• Key operations are enabled.
•Settings entered in remote mode are retained even when the DL6000/DLM6000 switches to local
mode.
Note
The USB interface cannot be used simultaneously with another interface (Ethernet or GP-IB interface).

1.3 Connection via the USB Interface
Precautions to Be Taken When Making Connections
• Connect the USB cable by inserting the connector firmly into the USB connector.
• When connecting multiple devices using USB hubs, connect the DL9710L to the USB hub that is
closest to the controller.
• Do not insert the USB cable into the GO/NO-GO output terminal. If you do, the instrument may
malfunction.

Procedure
UTILITY_Remote Control_UBS Menu
Press UTILITY, the Remote Control soft key, and then the USB soft key to display the following.
To remotely control the
DL6000/DLM6000 using
communication commands
through the USB port, select
USBTMC and then enable the
setting by restarting the
DL6000/DLM6000.
Note
• Only the communication interface selected by Remote Control is enabled. The DL6000/DLM6000 does
not accept commands that are transmitted to other unselected communication interfaces.
• To control the DL6000/DLM6000 remotely using communication commands through the USB port, select
“TMC” in the menu above, and carry out the procedure below.
• You must restart the DL6000/DLM6000 to activate the TMC or Mass Storage setting. Wait at least 10
seconds after you turn the power switch OFF, and then turn the switch back ON.
• Install YOKOGAWA’s TMC (Text and Measurement Class) driver into your PC. To obtain YOKOGAWA’
s USB TMC driver, contact your nearest YOKOGAWA dealer or access the following USB driver page
at our Web site and download it.
http://www.yokogawa.com/tm/tm-softdownload.htm
• Only use the USB TMC driver (or software) provided by YOKOGAWA.
• You cannot use keys to perform file operations when a PC is connected to the DL6000/DLM6000 and the
Mass Storage setting is enabled. You cannot use communication commands to perform file operations
either. To perform file operations, you must restart the DL6000/DLM6000 after disconnecting the PC or
enabling the TMC setting.

The Ethernet/VXI-11 interface cannot be used simultaneously with another interface (USB or GP-IB
interface).
User Authentication Feature
You must enter a user name and password to access the DL6000/DLM6000 through the Ethernet
interface. If the DL Series Library (TMCTL) version is 1.40 or later, the password is encrypted using the
MD5 algorithm (RSA Data Security, Inc. MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm) and then sent to the DL6000/
DLM6000.
Set the user name and password in the Remote Control setup screen in the DL6000/DLM6000
UTILITY menu. For instructions on how to set the user name and password, see section 2.4, “Setting
the DL6000/DLM6000 (Network).”
If you select VXI-11 in the Device menu of the Remote Control setup screen (explained later), the user
authentication setup menu will not appear in the Remote Control setup screen.

Notes about Connections
• Be sure to connect the DL6000/DLM6000 to a PC through a hub using straight cables. The DL6000/
DLM6000 may not operate properly if you connect it to a PC directly using a cross cable.
• If you use UTP cables (straight cables), make sure that they are category 5.

2.4 Setting the DL6000/DLM6000 (Network)
Procedure
UTILITY_Remote Control_Network Menu
Press UTILITY, the Remote Control soft key, and then the Network or Network(VXI-11) soft key to
display the following menu.
Select to use the
Ethernet interface.
Select to use the
VXI-11 interface.
Set the timeout value.
Set the timeout value.
Set the user name.
Set the password.
Note
• Only the interface that you select after pressing Remote Control is valid. The DL6000/DLM6000 does not
accept commands that are transmitted to other unselected communication interfaces.
• For details on how to operate the soft keyboard, see section 4.2, “Entering Values and Strings” in the
DL6000/DLM6000 User’s Manual (IM DLM6054-01EN).
• User names and passwords are case-sensitive.
Explanation
To use a controller to configure the same settings that you can configure using the DL6000/DLM6000
keys or to send setting parameters and waveform data to a controller, you must configure the settings
described below.
User Name and Password
The Ethernet interface has a user authentication feature. Set the DL6000/DLM6000 user name and
password in advance.
If you select VXI-11 in the Device menu of the Remote Control setup screen, the user authentication
setup menu will not appear in the Remote Control setup screen.
User Name
Set the user name using up to 30 characters. The default setting is “anonymous.”
Password
Set the password using up to 30 characters.

2-6 IM DLM6054-17EN
Timeout Value
The DL6000/DLM6000 disconnects itself from the controller if it is not accessed for the period of time
that you specify using the timeout value.
TCP/IP
To use the Ethernet interface, you must specify the following TCP/IP settings.
• IP address
• Subnet mask
• Default gateway
For details on how to specify these settings, see section 14.2, “Setting Up the TCP/IP” in the DL6000/
DLM6000 User’s Manual (IM DLM6054-01EN).
Note
• The DL6000/DLM6000 terminates the connection if there is an error in the user authentication process.
• You do not need to enter a password when the user name is set to “anonymous.”

To the PC card slot of the DL6000/DLM6000
GP-IB card
GP-IB cable
Precautions to Be Taken When Making Connections
• For the handling of the GP-IB card, see the manual that comes with the GP-IB card.
• Attach the GP-IB correctly with the front face up.
• Connect the GP-IB card to the DL6000/DLM6000 PC card slot first. Then, turn the DL6000/
DLM6000 ON.
• Multiple cables can be used to connect multiple devices. However, no more than 15 devices
including the controller can be connected on a single bus.
•When connecting multiple devices, each device must have its own unique address.
• Use a cable of length 2 m or less for connecting the devices.
•Make sure the total cable length does not exceed 20 m.
• When communicating, have at least two-thirds of the devices turned ON.
• When connecting multiple devices, connect them in a star or linear configuration (see the figure
below). Do not wire them in a loop or parallel configuration.
CAUTION
When connecting or disconnecting communication cables, make sure to turn OFF the PC and
the DL6000/DLM6000. Otherwise, erroneous operation or damage to the internal circuitry
may result.
