3 Installation Procedure
3.1 Agilent 7890 Setup - Communication
The GC must be fully configured prior to connecting to
Clarity
. No special
settings have to be made on the
Agilent 7890
chromatograph, only the
correct IP address of the instrument (set on the OPTIONS key screen by
using COMMUNICATION - IP item). A default IP address of most Agilent
GC's is 10.1.1.101 which is suitable only in case the GC is connected
directly to computer using separate network.
Caution:
Do not use the
Agilent 7890
DHCP server feature.
When using the LAN communication it is recommended to attach the GC
chromatograph directly to the PC avoiding hubs, switches etc. Contact
your local LAN administrator who can make the appropriate settings.
In case your network uses firewall for protection, make sure that
connection is not blocked in
both
directions. (chromatograph uses
separate connection for control communication and for data sending).
Caution:
Cross LAN
cable is primarily used for the direct connection of the
chromatograph and the PC. This cable can also be used for the
connection of the device to the switch or network socket, but with older
switches, the
straight LAN
cable might be necessary.
