5.1 Interface installation

IC Net 2.0

5 Interfaces

The «IC Net» program supports remote control for interfaces

available from Metrohm and Bischoff. Interfaces generally convert

analog signals to digital form, which can be handled by the com-

puter. Interfaces are stored as device files (*.dev) in the Devices

directory. All Metrohm interfaces and Metrohm devices start

with Me*.dev; all Bischoff interfaces and Bischoff devices start

with Bi*.dev.

5.1 Interface installation

5.1.1 Add interfaces with system wizard

IC NET / File / New / System

The New system wizard window and a new SYSTEM window are

opened. The New system wizard guides you trough the installation

routine step-by-step to build a new systemsystem. The next step of the

system installation is reached with <Next>, the previous step with

<Back> and the installation is completed with <Finish>.

The first step of the system installation is to enter a name for a

new system folder within the «IC Net» program path

...\ICNet\Systems. For every instrument combination, a new folder

should be created.

After clicking on <Next>, the window for addition of interfaces to

the toolbar appears. The interface has to be selected from the

Metrohm Interfaces or Bischoff Interfaces groups. After selecting the

serial port where the interface is connected to and clicking on

<Add to workplace>, the interface icon will appear on the toolbar

(PC Boards will not appear on toolbar).
