numbers of volatile, or acidic, samples are left in the proximity of the
instrumentation. If an autosampler is used with volatile or acidic
samples a separately vented enclosure should be used.
This should include appropriate filtering of hazardous toxic fumes.
An Ethernet connection is used between the instrument and a
3.4 Communications
computer for Data Station communication. Therefore, if the Data
Interface
Station computer is connected to a local area network, an additional
Ethernet port is required for connection to the instrument.

Any firewalls installed on the PC must be disabled for the Instrument
Ethernet adaptor, or alternatively configured to allow the
appropriate instrument communications socket traffic. The
Ethernet adaptor is dedicated to the instrument and will not be
connected to any other networks, therefore there is no security risk
associated with allowing communication via the Instrument Ethernet
adaptor.
The IP address of the Instrument Ethernet adaptor will by default be
configured by the installation engineer. The Instrument IP address will
be 90.0.0.50.
