1 Ensure the power switches on the front of the modules in the stack are OFF
(switches stand out).
2 If there are no other 1260 with LAN port in the HPLC stack, install a
G1369B LAN board into the extension slot of the pump.
3 Connect the LAN enabled module with a LAN cable to the data system.
4 Plug the CAN connector of the Instant Pilot into any available CAN port of
the 1260 system.
5 Plug a CAN cable into the CAN connector of the Instant Pilot.
6 Connect the CAN cable to the CAN connector of one of the modules.
7 Press in the power switches to turn on the modules.
With the introduction of the Agilent 1260 Infinity, all GPIB interfaces have been removed.
The preferred communication is LAN.
Usually the detector is producing the most data in the stack, followed by the pump, and it is
therefore highly recommended to use either of these modules for the LAN connection.
The Agilent control software can also be connected to the system through a LAN cable,
which requires the installation of a LAN-board. For more information about connecting the
Instant Pilot or Agilent control software refer to the respective user manual.
“Interfaces” on page 179 provides information on how to connect external hardware.
