Please note:
Install Chromeleon software before connecting the TCC-100 to the USB
port on the Chromeleon server PC.
For USB connection, connect the USB cable
from the TCC-100 accessories kit to the
USB port on the instrument's rear panel and
to the USB port on the Chromeleon server
PC.
Please note:
The USB connection between the TCC-100 and the PC or a USB hub
must not exceed 5 m. A special USB extension cable (Dionex part
no. 8911.0004) is available if longer connections are required. Up to
five extension cables may be connected in series. For system reasons,
the overall connection length must not exceed 30 m.
For Chromeleon versions 6.30 and 6.40, install the TCC-100 column compartment driver via
the Setup program on the software CD provided in the accessories kit. Insert the CD into the
CD drive of your Chromeleon server PC. Double-click
Setup.exe
in the root directory. Click
Next
to have the Setup program check which Chromeleon version is installed on your PC.
Follow the on-screen instructions as they appear to install the driver. If a version is found for
which no driver is available, the setup aborts.
For Chromeleon versions higher than 6.40, the USB installation of the TCC-100 is handled
automatically during the Chromeleon setup. The user will not be required to take any other
action.
Please note:
Windows NT 4.0 does not support USB. In this case, use a LAN
connection instead.
For LAN connection, connect the LAN
cable from the TCC-100 accessories kit to
the LAN port on the instrument's rear panel
and to the LAN port on the Chromeleon
server PC or to a LAN hub, which is
connected to the Chromeleon server PC.
