/// USB interface
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus for connecting the device to the PC. Equipped with
USB devices can be connected to a PC during operation (hot plugging).
Connected devices and their properties are automatically recognized.
/// USB device drivers
First, download the latest driver for IKA devices with USB interface from:
www.ika.com/ika/lws/download/usb-driver.zip.
Install the driver by running the setup file. Connect the IKA device through the USB data cable
to the PC. The data communication is via a virtual COM port. Configuration, command syntax
and commands of the virtual COM ports are as described in RS 232 interface.
Note: the USB driver is uncessary for Windows 10 system. Don't install it for Windows 10
system!

Note: for open bath application!
Note: Tap water may be unsuitable for operation because the calcium carbonate content
may cause calcification.
High purity water (from icon exchangers) and distilled or bi-distilled water are unsuitable for
operation due to corrosive properties of these media. High purity water and distillates are
suitable as a medium after adding 0.1 g soda (Na

, sodium carbonate) per liter of water.
Note: The temperature limit values are adjustable in accordance with the fluid used.
Check the suitability of the liquid according to your application.
