Here's how I set up my HP1660 on a Windows XP machine:
**** Connect to your HP1660 through X-Windows ****
I purchased a Vonets VAP11G-300 (AC adapter sold separately). You must disconnect your wireless network card before plugging this into your network card RJ45 socket.
Open up your browser and go to:
http://vonets.cfg U:admin P:admin (you can change this), and connect to your network with it.
Unplug it from your computer and connect the RJ45 Ethernet connector to the HP1660. You can turn your wifi back on.
... or if you like running Ethernet cable through your house. Plug a network cable in to the analyser and the other end in to your router.
Download MobaXterm here:
https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download.htmlInstall and run.
Hover over the X-Server button. If it hasn't started, click the button. It will display that the server is running using whatever IP Address.
(Current DISPLAY=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:0.0)
In the HP1660. Go to System / External I/O / LAN Settings:
LAN Port: LAN TP (or LAN BNC if you plugged in one of those, I guess)
Analyser IP Address: 192.168.0.100, (you can change this to whatever you wish)
Gateway IP Address: 192.168.0.1, (this is the IP address of your router.)
Timeout, etc... leave alone.
Click Done.
You can verify it's working by pinging to that IP address.
In a command shell, (Hit Windows-R, type cmd and hit Enter), type ping 192.168.0.100 (or whatever you set your Analyser IP Address to)
It should receive pings from the analyser without timing out.
In the HP1660. Go to System / External I/O / X-Window Settings:
Remote Display Internet (IP) Address: Enter the IP Address from hovered X-Server button (Current DISPLAY=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:0.0)
Set the Display and Screen to 0. (or possibly to whatever that was shown in the hovered button. It will most likely be 0.0)
Click Done.
In the HP1660. Go to System / External I/O / X-Window:
Click Connect
MobaXterm will notify you that the HP1660 wishes to connect to it.
Click Yes
You're in. Enjoy.
You must click the Disconnect button on the analyser before shutting down app.
**** FTP to the HP1660 ****
Press Windows-R and type: cmd. Hit Enter.
Type ftp. A FTP prompt will appear.
Type open 192.168.0.100 (or whatever you set your Analyser IP Address to)
It'll ask for a username. Type data
You're in. Use ls, cd, get... etc.
When your done. Type close then exit
...or you can use Filezilla...
Host: IP Address of analyser
Username: data (if you want to fetch data from analyser), control (if you want to upload programs to it).
You're in.
**** Add Fonts to MobaXTerm ****
You will have to convert the .bdf fonts to .pcf. The best way is to do it through Linux since it has functionality just for doing that.
Look up 'Add Linux subsystem to Windows 10'. This will NOT make your machine a duel boot system.
In a Linux shell, run these two commands:
bdftopcf lg165.bdf > lg165.pcf
bdftopcf sm165.bdf > sm165.pcfCopy lg165.pcf & sm165.pcf to c:\<user>\My Documents\MobaXTerm\slash\usr\share\fonts\misc\
Add these two lines to the fonts.dir file located at c:\<user>\My Documents\MobaXTerm\slash\usr\share\fonts\misc\:
lg165.pcf -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--15-150-75-75-M-100-ISO8859-1
sm165.pcf -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--14-120-75-75-M-80-ISO8859-1Add the number of entries on top of file list by 2
Add these two lines to fonts.alias located at c:\<user>\My Documents\MobaXTerm\slash\usr\share\fonts\misc\:
lg165.pcf -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--15-150-75-75-M-100-ISO8859-1
sm165.pcf -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--14-120-75-75-M-80-ISO8859-1Restart MobaXTerm and connect the analyser. Should run fine without errors.
