n Changing Analyzer Server
If multiple analyzer servers are connected to the network, the Engineering Terminal allows you to
choose the analyzer server to be connected to.
The method of choosing an analyzer server and operation of the dialog box for selecting the
analyzer server are the same as those for an LDC Emulator. See “Changing Analyzer Server” in
section 2.1, “Starting LCD Emulator, Changing Analyzer, and Exiting LCD Emulator.”
n Limitation on the Number of Users to be Connected Simultaneously
An analyzer server can communicate with multiple Engineering Terminals up to 4 sets at the
same time.
If a user attempts to make communication connection with an analyzer server using Engineering
Terminal while other 4 users are communicating with that analyzer server using Engineering
Terminal, this connection cannot be established. In this case, a message box appears indicating
the currently connected PC’s IP address.

n Forced Connection
Forced connection is a connection means to establish a communication connection even if the
analyzer server to which you wish to connect is connected to four ASETs.
If the analyzer server you wish to connect to is connected to less than four ASETs, forced
connection starts without interruption.
If you attempt to execute a new forced connection to an analyzer server that is already connected
to four ASETs, the forced connection dialog box appears. In this dialog box, you can choose a
connection to force to be disconnected, then click the Forced Connect button. This allows your
forced connection to be made and established (last priority).
Note that forced connection requires password entry. Please refer to User’s Manual of GC8000
(IM 11B08A01-01E) or Password Manual (IM 11B03A03-07E). When forced connection is
executed, the following message box appears.
F0306.ai
l Operation procedure
(1) Click the Force Connect button on Connect menu, then a dialog box for typing the password
appears.
(2) Entry the password and click Execute button.
When a user level C password is entered, force connection takes place.
