There may be problems when connecting the Agilent Instant Pilot G4208A to an
Agilent 1100/1200//1260/1290 instrument controlled by third party software, if
this software generates an error when detecting an unknown module in the
configuration. Therefore the Agilent Instant Pilot G4208A can be made invisible
to other controllers.
To change the setting open the Configure> Controller screen. Scroll to 3rd Party
Software and change to ON.
Figure 78 Configure Controller - 3rd Party Software Compatibility
Backward compatible OFF visible to other controllers (default)
Backward compatible ON invisible to other controllers
Whenever this setting is changed, the Instant Pilot needs to be rebooted to make
the change active.
If the Instant Pilot is in Backward compatible mode ON, see “With 3rd Party
Control Software” on page 106, it will not be seen by the LAN/RS-232 Firmware
Update Tool. For updating firmware reconfigure the Instant Pilot to Backward
compatible mode OFF.
