Connecting a computer
The 846 Dosing Interface requires a USB connection to a computer in
order to be able to be controlled by a PC software. Using a 6.2151.000
controller cable, the instrument can be connected directly, either to a USB
socket on a computer, to a connected USB hub or to a different Metrohm
control device.
You need administrator rights for the installation of the driver and soft-
ware on your PC.

Interface is recognized by the PC software. To accomplish this, you must

tion program directions.
