You would need to know its IP address in order to connect to it.  You would also need to know the commands that it receives and sends.  For that, you will need the manual.

 

I would just use VISA to connect to an instrument over TCP/IP.  From there, you just communicate with whatever command protocol the instrument specifies.

Since the question is very general i can only answer very general: You send the correct command to the right adress.
