The USB communication cables between the computer and the mass
spectrometer must be no longer than 3 m each. The workbench that
holds the data system must be located next to the workbench that holds
the mass spectrometer. For a connection length of more than 3 m, an
active hub must be placed between the instrument and the computer.
The length of the USB cable between the iCAP RQ ICP-MS
instrument and the hub is limited to 3 m, whereas between the hub and
the computer a cable length of 5 m can be used. This hub must
exclusively be used for the control of the iCAP RQ ICP-MS instrument.
