3.4 Connecting a computer
The 846 Dosing Interface requires a USB connection to a computer in
order to be able to be controlled by a computer software. Using a
6.2151.000 controller cable, the instrument can be connected directly,
either to a USB socket on a computer, to a connected USB hub or to a
different Metrohm control instrument.
You need administrator rights for the installation of driver software and
control software on your computer.
Cable connection and driver installation
A driver installation is required in order to ensure that the 846 Dosing
Interface is recognized by the computer software. To accomplish this, you
must comply with the procedures specified. The following steps are neces-
sary:
1
Install the software
￭ Insert the computer software installation CD and carry out the
installation program directions.

page 14 and see Chapter 3.6, page 18.

puter (see manual of your computer). The 6.2151.000 cable is
