Setting up Communications for ICN
25. We need to setup communications for communicating with the MOD 30ML instrument so
that we can download the database to the instrument. We will use the built-in ICN port of
the instrument to download to the instrument via ICN.
• Add an ICN block (Instrument Communication Network) to the workspace by
dragging it from Algorithms menu. Double-click on it to configure. The properties
menu of the ICN block will display as shown below:

block
• Type a name and description for this block.
• Select Built-in as the Type.
• Type an ICN Address. This address should be same as that is set in the instrument.
• Check the box at the bottom of this dialog box if the ICN termination resister is
connected to this instrument. This configuration only question is used to determine
module current load.
• Click on OK to close the block.
26. Connect the Configured List foreground to the ICN block:
• Make a connection from the CL block by selecting the right angle connection from
the Algorithms window and select CL block’s LISTOUT as the source. Terminate
