The System Computer
The system is controlled by an IBM-compatible Pentium
®
computer. The standard
computer is configured with one floppy disk drive, a CD-drive and one hard drive.
The computer contains a serial RS-232 communications port, a parallel printer
port, and a graphics adapter for the color monitor. All RS-232 communication
occurs through communications port one. Communications port two is used for
proprietary purposes and cannot be used in conjunction with any peripheral
devices.
Attaching To A Network
The system can also be attached to a network. We sell a networking kit to attach
the system to a network. For additional information on the networking kit, contact
your PerkinElmer representative.
