1.2 The 846 Dosing Interface

The 846 Dosing Interface is part of the Metrohm Titrando system as a system
component and control instrument. The instruments are controlled via USB 1.1
connections.

The four MSB connectors (MSB=Metrohm Serial Bus) of the 846 Dosing Inter-
face enable the operation of Metrohm Dosinos (models 700 and 800) which al-
low complex liquid handling processes.

One or more 846 Dosing Interfaces can be controlled at the same time. Each
of them can operate up to four Metrohm 700/800 Dosinos.

Several 846 Dosing Interfaces can be connected via USB in a daisy chain. All
of these instruments can be controlled by a PC software via USB. The Metrohm
USB driver (metr_770.dll) controls the basic USB data transfer. The Dosing In-
terface USB Toolbox provides the low level functions for controlling the Dosino
drives.
