 COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACE CONNECTIONS 

For network or Internet communication with the instrument, connect an Ethernet 
cable from the analyzer’s rear panel Ethernet interface  connector to an Ethernet 
port. Although the analyzer is shipped with DHCP enabled by default, it should be 
manually assigned a static IP address. See Section 3.2.13. The USB ports are for 
other utilities described later in this manual.  

 AEROSOL SAMPLE CONDITIONER (ASC) CONNECTIONS AND 

INSTALLATION 

The ASC requires an inlet nozzle adapter for installation.  

IMPORTANT

 

IMPACT ON READINGS OR DATA 

The black inlet nozzle to the optical sensor is specific to the 
instrument and is not interchangeable with other T640 
instruments. Use caution when handling and contact TAPI Tech 
Support if this piece is ever damaged as it could affect the 
instrument’s performance.
