4.6.2 Configuring LAN settings
The LAN uses only one server (which is normally the router) from that the
devices automatically receive their IP address .
In Windows, power saving, hibernation, standby, and screen saver
must be deactivated .
In case you use an USB-to-COM box, the option "Allow the computer
to turn off this device to save power" in the device manager must be
deactivated for all USB hosts .
Applies to all LAN devices: Disable the setting for the network adapter
in Device Manager "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save
power” .

In Windows, open <Network and Sharing Center> .

4.6.3 Connecting devices with LAN
A router
2
has several LAN ports
3
and one WAN port
4
that can be
used to integrate the LAN into a wide area network (WAN), e .g . a com-
pany network or the Internet . In contrast, the LAN ports serve to set up a
network from devices
1
and a computer
5
. To avoid interference, we
recommend operating the chromatography system separately from the
company network .
Note:
You will find patch cables for each device and the router in the
accessories kit . To connect the router to a LAN, an additional patch cable
is required, which is not supplied within the scope of delivery .
