If you have already installed Process Eye Professional you can check the status of the Cirrus2 by launching the “RGA
Device Manager” (see your Process Eye Professional user manual)
Double-click the RGA Device Manager icon to start the application. After a few moments the following dialog appears
displaying a list of all discovered MKS RGA’s.

You can see that there is only
one RGA displayed in the
example, if you have more than
one RGA on your network, this
view may contain many entries.

Ensure you choose the correct
instrument from the list.

The status, current IP address and type of IP addressing can be checked in this dialog. Once “Ready” is displayed you
can close RGA Device Manager and begin using the RGA.
