The firmware for the instrument consists of two independent sections:
• A non-instrument-specific section, called the resident system.
• An instrument-specific section, called the main system.

The resident section of the firmware is identical in many Agilent devices and
modules. Its properties include:
• The complete communication capabilities (CAN, USB, LAN and RS-232C)
• Memory management
• Ability to update the firmware of the main system
