It displays the magnified Graphical User Interface (GUI) with all diagram areas and
controls and the "Hardkey Bar" with key shortcuts for the most important menus and
submenus. With an additional mouse connected to the analyzer, it is possible to control
the analyzer from the GUI.
For instruments running Windows 7 the external monitor port is automatically enabled
at firmware startup.
Safety aspects
The monitor must be connected while the instrument is switched off (or in standby
mode). Otherwise correct operation can not be guaranteed.
Typically mouse, keyboard and monitor are plug & play devices, i.e. they are automati-
cally detected by the operating system. If necessary, use standard Windows techni-
ques (such as the "Add Printer " wizard or the device properties pages accessible via
Windows Control Panel) to install missing or enhanced device drivers and to configure
connected devices.
1.7 Connecting to a LAN
A LAN connection is used to integrate the analyzer into a home/company network. This
offers several applications, e.g.:
●
Transfer data between a controller and the analyzer, e.g. in order run a remote
control program.
●
Control the measurement from a remote computer using the Remote Desktop
application.
●
Use external network devices (e.g. printers).
Virus protection
An efficient virus protection is a prerequisite for secure operation in the network. Never
connect your analyzer to an unprotected network because this may cause damage to
the instrument software.
