Starting the Configurator Software and Establishing
Communication Between the Analyzer and Computer
This section discusses how to start the Configurator Software and estab-
lish communications with the analyzer.
Before beginning, you should
have already installed the analyzer and the Configurator Software, as
explained in Chapter 3.
This section assumes the analyzer is running.
Hazardous Locations
Before proceeding, test the area around the analyzer for explosive
gases and proceed only when the area is found to be safe.
Do not remove the cover of the Explosion-Proof Digital
Communications Port on the front of the Ex d Lower Enclosure, do
not connect a serial cable to the Communications Port, do not open
the Upper/Lower Enclosures, and do not power up/down the analyzer
or computer if there is an explosive gas atmosphere present.
To establish communication between the analyzer and computer:
1. Depending on the type of communication being used, follow one of
the two following setup requirements:
For Modbus Serial communication:
Connect the supplied serial cable between the computer and the
analyzer’s Communications Port on the front of the Lower Enclosure.
Alternatively, connect this cable to the
Remote Service Port (RS-485,
accessed from connector J303 on the Host Controller board).
For Modbus TCP communication:
Communication between the analyzer and the software will be es-
tablished upon starting the Configurator Software. Proceed to Step 2.
See “Hardware Configuration (Modbus TCP Communication)” in
Chapter 3 for information about hardware requirements.
2. Power up the computer and start the 93XS System 200 Configurator
Software using one of two methods:
• Click S93xs from the Start\All Programs\AMETEK 93XS
Configurator Version #.# menu.
• Click the S93xs icon on the computer’s desktop.
