2.6 Installation for simple remote control of the
IC system
Using the 714 PC Board or 771 IC Compact Interface a simple
interconnection of modular IC systems to a PC can be established.
These devices just convert the analog signals from the 732 IC Detector
to digital data for the PC.
For simple control of the IC system, the 732 IC detector has to be
connected to the PC additionally via its RS232 port. «IC Net» and the
prior software «IC Metrodata» use this serial connection for a simple
control of the IC system.
As described for compact IC systems the 788 IC Filtration Sample
Processor is connected to these IC Systems by remote connection.
Also, internal methods of the Sample Processor are used. In the
present chapter, a description of the connection of the 788 IC Filtration
Sample Processor to such IC Systems is given. The use of the
corresponding 788 standard methods is given in section 4.6.
For this type of simple remote control of the IC System the 732 IC
Detector is used as "Master".
Another version of PC connection for modular IC systems includes only
signal transmission and conversion to digital data using the 714 PC
Board or 771 IC Compact Interface. All methods and programs are
directly edited at the 732 IC Detector or 788 IC Filtration Sample
Processor. One of these instruments then holds the time control of the
program and operated as "Master".
Examples for these different configurations are given in the following
sections.
