the Instrument Module to a USB port on the measurement computer.
2 Connect the 280-DS Vessel Module to the Instrument Module via the

The online testing mode provides direct communication between the
dissolution apparatus and the 280-DS Workstation Software. This
feature is only available for Agilent, Varian, or VanKel dissolution
apparatus models.
For PCs without a 9-pin serial port, a USB-to-Serial adapter may be
configured and used to communicate with the dissolution apparatus.
1 Connect or verify connection of the AC power cord between the
power receptacle on the PC and an AC electrical supply of the
appropriate voltage. If using a laptop, the 280-DS can also be used
when the laptop is on battery power.
Please ensure your computer's battery is appropriately charged before
using the 280-DS on battery power. The 280-DS draws power from the
computer connected to it and will drain the battery faster than normal.
2 Connect or verify connection of the AC power cord between the
power receptacle on the dissolution apparatus and an AC electrical
supply of the appropriate voltage.
