Initial Operation
Using the unit for the first time involves three steps:
1 Setting up the unit
•
To prepare the MET for use, it needs to be placed on a surface with no more
than 20° of inclination.
•
Connect the unit to the mains power supply via the desktop power pack in-
cluded in delivery or to the vehicle battery or cigarette lighter via the 12/24V
on-board electrical system (available as an option).
•
Attach the tubing of the sampling probe to the unit.
•
Connect the unit to a PC via the LAN cable provided.
2 Installing the PC software
The installation of the software and the connection configuration is described in
the technical information "EUROSYSTEM Software for Exhaust Gas Analysers"
(TIE10101_009), which is provided on the installation CD.
3 Configuring the PC–MET and PC–MAHA VCI connections
The establishment of the WiFi connection for configuring the MAHA VCI is
described in the user manual “Establishing and Operating WiFi Networks”
(BA315001_002).

PC–MET Connection Options
The MET can be connected to the PC by using one of the following methods:
1 LAN via TCP/IP
2 WiFi via TCP/IP (optional)
3 CAN interface, only for establishing a connection to an external software and
not in conjunction with WiFi
8.1
LAN Connection
In the most straightforward scenario, there is only one (LAN cable) connection
between the MET and the PC. The PC has not other network connection. If the
PC and the MET are still configured with their factory settings, a network
connection is established automatically when the cable is connected. No
additional configuration is needed.
To connect a PC via an existing network, network knowledge is required.
Important: On delivery, the MET is configured to work as DHCP client!
