Serial connections
A wide range of possible connections can be made at the RS232 interface.
As well as all Metrohm instruments which are equipped with the Metrohm
remote control language, a printer (requirement: serial interface or paral-
lel/serial converter) or a personal computer (PC) can also be connected.
Any instrument from another manufacturer which is equipped with a serial
RS232 interface can also be connected.
A requirement for correct data transmission is that the transmission parame-
ters are correctly set; these must coincide with the interface settings of the
connected instrument (see following page).
