Connecting USB devices
Two USB connectors (Type A sockets) are available for connecting devices
with USB interfaces. The 855 Robotic Titrosampler functions then as a USB
hub (distributor). If you wish to connect more than two USB devices, you
can also use an additional commercially available USB hub.
Note
When a USB device is connected, the control instrument recognizes which
device is connected. The control software automatically enters a connec-
ted USB device into the system configuration (Device manager).
