Installation
3.5 Interfaces
The DR 6000 features three USB ports and one Ethernet port as
standard, located on the front and back of the instrument
(Figure 1 and Figure 2, Page 19).
The USB type A ports are used for communications with a printer,
USB memory stick or keyboard. A USB memory stick can be
used to update the instrument software.
The USB type B port is used for communications with a PC. The
optional Hach Data Trans software (refer to Section 9, Page 143)
must be installed on the PC for data transfer.
A USB hub may be used to connect several accessories at a
time.
Note: USB cables must not be longer than 3m. Use USB cables with
ferrite shielding.
These interfaces provide the output of data and graphics to
printers and PCs and the updating of the device software (refer to
section 6.7.2, page 116). The Ethernet port supports real-time
data transfer in local networks, LIMS systems and SC controllers.
Only use a shielded cable (for example STP, FTP, S/FTP) with a
maximum length of 20 m for the Ethernet port.
