To connect the 996 detector to a Millennium
32
Workstation:
1. Connect one end of the IEEE-488 cable to the IEEE-488 receptacle on the rear
panel of the 996 detector. Connect the other end of the cable (stackable
connector for daisy-chaining additional instruments) to the IEEE-488 connector
on any of the other instruments in your chromatographic system (Figure 1-3
).
Figure 1-3 Example of IEEE-488 Cable Connections
Note:
The order in which you connect IEEE-488 devices to the busLAC/E card on
the workstation is not important. For example, you can connect the 2690
separations module before or after the 996 detector.
2. Use another IEEE-488 cable to connect to the stackable connector on the first
instrument and the IEEE-488 connector on another instrument.
3. Repeat step 2 for each IEEE-488 instrument in your chromatographic system, up
to a maximum of 14 IEEE-488 instruments.
Note:
Keep in mind cable-length limitations when you set up your system. For a list
of IEEE-488 interface guidelines, refer to the Millennium
32
System
Installation/Configuration Guide, Section 2.3.1, Connecting IEEE-488 Devices.
4. Ensure that all IEEE-488 cable screws are fastened finger-tight.
