Site Lan Network - Agilent Technologies ALS Handbuch

Site LAN Network

If you intend to connect your system to your site's LAN network, you must
have an additional shielded twisted pair network cable (8121-0940).
Agilent Technologies is not responsible for connecting to or establishing communication
N O T E
with your site LAN network. The representative will test the system's ability to
communicate on a mini-hub or LAN switch only.
The IP addresses assigned to the instrument(s) must be fixed (permanently assigned)
N O T E
addresses. If you intend to connect your system to your site's network, each piece of
equipment must have a unique, fixed (static) IP address assigned to it.
For a Single Quad GC/MS system, Agilent recommends, sells, and supports the use of a PC
N O T E
with one (1) network interface card (NIC) and a network switch to isolate the GC/MS
system from the site LAN. The network switch supplied with Agilent systems prevents
instrument-to-PC network traffic from entering the site LAN and keeps site LAN network
traffic from interfering with instrument-to-PC communications. Agilent develops and tests
all Single Quad GC/MS hardware and software using the single NIC configuration and has
no known network configuration issues. Alternate network configurations can be
configured and managed by the end user at their own risk and expense.
For Triple Quad and the 7200 Q-TOF GC/MS systems, Agilent recommends, sells, and
N O T E
supports the use of a PC with two network interface cards (NIC) to provide both a site LAN
connection and an isolated GC/MS system connection. Agilent develops and tests all Triple
Quad and Q-TOF GC/MS hardware and software using the dual NIC configuration, and has
no known network configuration issues. Alternate network configurations can be
configured and managed by the end user at their own risk and expense.
