3 Connecting Signal Cables
This chapter describes procedures for making signal connections between the
detector and other Alliance HPLC system components.
3.1 Component connection overview
The following table summarizes the signal connections used to connect the detector to
the Alliance HPLC system components.
Table 3–1: Component connector types
Connector type Component
Ethernet Chromatography data software, such as
Empower software or MassLynx software,
connected via the Ethernet network.
Tip: The Ethernet port also supports the
Waters PC-based Autoloader utility for
installing firmware (see the Waters 2414
Refractive Index Detector release notes for
details).
IEEE-488 The following systems are connected via the
IEEE-488 bus:
• Waters data control system, such as
Empower
• Alliance HPLC System with an Alliance
e2695 separations module functioning as
the HPLC system controller
Analog outputs A/D interface
Event inputs • System controller (used with the Alliance
HPLC system)
• Waters injector or injector made by
another manufacturer
Ext 1 One optional external column heater
RS-232 For firmware upgrades only
