Connection to networks
Before connecting the instrument to the network or configuring the network, consult
your network administrator, particularly for large LAN installations. Errors may affect
the entire network.
Never connect your analyzer to a network unprotected against virus infection because
this may cause damage to the instrument software.
To integrate the instrument into your network, you can change the following system
properties:
●
Computer name
●
Domain
●
Workgroup
Operation on the network includes the following administrative tasks:

Operating the Instrument Without a Network
To operate the instrument without a network connection either temporarily or perma-
nently, no special measures are necessary. Windows automatically detects the inter-
ruption of the network connection and does not set up the connection when the instru-
ment is switched on.
If you are not prompted to enter the user name and password, see
11.2.7.2
Creating Users
After the software for the network has been installed, the instrument issues an error
message the next time it is switched on because there is no user named "instrument"
(= user ID for Windows automatic login) in the network. Thus, a matching user must be
created in Windows and in the network, the password must be adapted to the network
password, and the automatic login mechanism must then be deactivated.
The network administrator is responsible for creating new users in the network.
1. Press the "Windows" key on the external keyboard or the [CTRL + ESC] key com-
bination on your keyboard to access the operating system.
2. Select "Start > Settings > Accounts > Other users".
3. Select "Add someone else to this PC".
