• The GPIB connector is used to connect the autosamplers with a
computer. The address and control switch module next to the GPIB
connector determines the GPIB address of your autosamplers. The
switches are preset to a default address (see Table 50 on page 232)
which is recognized once after power on.
• The CAN bus is a serial bus with high-speed data transfer. The two
connectors for the CAN bus are used for internal Agilent 1100 Series
module data transfer and synchronization.
• The REMOTE connector may be used in combination with other
analytical instruments from Agilent Technologies if you want to use
features such as common shut down, prepare, and so on.
• The RS-232 connector may be used to control the autosamplers from a
computer through an RS-232 connection, using appropriate software.
