Installing a Network Card in an Agilent Module
For the Agilent LC system to communicate with the Xcalibur data system through an
Ethernet connection, one of the modules in the Agilent 1100 Series LC stack must have a
network interface card. If the stack has a detector, the card is usually installed in the detector.
Agilent 1100 Series LC systems with JetDirect® network cards must have revision 2
mainboards to function properly with LAN communications.
Table 3 shows the required
revision level for each module. The serial number listed in the table and all serial numbers
after that number are supported.
Tip Vendors label network cards with a unique MAC address, which is a 12-digit
hexadecimal number. The first portion of the MAC address identifies the vendor. The
second portion of the MAC address is a unique serial number. For example, a typical mark
on a network card is AD: 0030C1C49982, in which 0030C1C49982 is the stack MAC
address. The first portion, 0030C1, identifies the vendor as Hewlett-Packard. The MAC
address of the HP JetDirect 400N network card is located on the back of the card.
Because you need the MAC address when you configure the Agilent stack, record the
network card MAC address before you install the card.
