ChemStation software is a Windows based application designed and developed by Agilent that
can remotely access and control the dissolution bath instrument.
Distek Agilent-UV Driver software is designed to work with the Agilent 8453 UV-Visible
Spectrophotometer system using ChemStation software for the Dissolution bath. In
Dissolution
Testing M ode or M ultiba th Dissolution Testing m ode,
the ChemStation is capable of controlling a
dissolution bath remotely, and in the process can acquire data useful for purposes of reporting.
In order to control a Distek dissolution bath system through ChemStation, an additional software
layer (translator) called the Driver is necessary. The Distek Agilent-UV driver intercepts the
commands sent by ChemStation and translates them to commands understood by Distek baths
to perform appropriate functions. It also receives the responses from the dissolution bath and
translates them back into responses understood by ChemStation.
The driver developed at Distek is a multi-bath driver that provides a transparent interface
between Distek dissolution systems and ChemStation software. This driver has the capability to
use up to four RS-232 port (COM port) to configure either single or multiple baths connected to
the PC serial ports. This has been made possible due to the capability of the RS-232 port in Distek
Model 2500 Dissolution Systems (a NULL RS-232 cable is required).
