Metrohm 847 Lab Link - Manual (Page 36)

3 Operation
3.2 Making a connection
Note
Always start the Lab Link Server software before you switch on the Touch
Control!
847 USB Lab Link devices for which the option Auto connect (via multicast) is
switched on log in to the server automatically when they are switched on.
As soon as you have started the Lab Link Server it will attempt to make a
connection to all defined Lab Link devices in the list.
If this is successful then the Connection status will change from not avail-
able to not connected and then to connected. Otherwise the server will make
regular attempts to set up the connection. This is indicated in the status line
at the lower margin of the window. An existing connection (status connected)
will also be checked at regular intervals to see if it is still active.
Under Connection status the following messages are possible:
“inactive” Ethernet connection is deactivated (no periodic
status test)
You can activate the connection under Con-
nection / Edit / Settings (see Section 3.1).
“not available” No Ethernet connection to Lab Link or the Lab
Link is switched off
