Setting Up the LAN Interface
This chapter describes how to configure the LAN interface for an Agilent 1200 Series LC
system. For stable communication with the Xcalibur data system, one device in the Agilent
1200 Series LC system must have either an on-board LAN interface or an Agilent G1369A
LAN card. In addition, the initialization mode for the LAN interface must use a stored IP
address.
Step 1: Determining the Type and Location of the LAN Interface
Agilent provides two types of LAN interfaces: an on-board LAN interface that can be ordered
as part of an instrument and the Agilent G1369A LAN card that can be ordered separately.
Y To determine which device contains the LAN interface
1. Check the back panels of the devices in the Agilent 1200 Series stack. One of the devices
must contain either an on-board LAN interface or an Agilent G1369A LAN card.
Figure 3 shows the back panel location of the Agilent LAN interface.

IMPORTANT Do not install more than one LAN card in the Agilent 1200 Series LC
system. If one of the devices in the Agilent 1200 Series LC system includes an on-board
LAN communication interface, do not install a LAN card.
