You can use the self-adhesive labels found in the standard outfit of the Data System to note
the IP address of the instrument. Stick the label where it can be easily found when configuring
the data system.
1. Launch the Data System.
2. Enter the IP address of the GC.
IMPORTANT If you connect through hubs over a 10 Mbit/s network, it is recommended
that no more than five GC units be connected on the same network trunk. If you have a
switched network, this does not apply.
The column is where the separation takes place. It should be positioned inside the oven on the
column rack. The column ends should align correctly with the injector and the detector
bottom fittings. The GC oven controller accurately controls the column temperature.
Each column has a maximum recommended operating temperature. To protect the column
from excessively high temperatures, remember to set the Maximum temperature parameter
for the oven.
Note For detailed information on maximum operating temperature, refer to the column
manufacturer's instructions provided with the column.
