System configurations

When the module is under data system control, it can operate in one of these
configurations:
• Where all system modules, including the Pump Control Module II,
communicate with the data system via an IEEE-488 bus interface
• Where all system modules, including the Pump Control Module II,
communicate with the data system via Ethernet communications
Restriction:
are using its IEEE-488 bus interface for communications.
For details on the module's software and firmware requirements, see
