2.2.9 Selecting the PC communication Port

It is just a simple case of selecting the correct port on the PC. The

software shows the COM ports that are present in the system to choose

from: COM1, COM2, COM3…. If you are not sure which port the cable is

connected on your computer refer to your PC manual.

2.2.10 Setting up a Multipoint System with Multipoint Samplers -

INNOVA 1309

The 1309(s) is connected to the Gas Monitor using IEEE-488 cable(s).

To avoid data errors, this cable must conform to the specifications laid

down in the IEEE-488 standard, particularly with regard to length,

connector type and “daisy-chaining”. LumaSense can supply the correct

cables, Cable order no. AO0265 (2m) or WL0845 (1m).

Caution: To avoid permanently damaging the delicate electronics in a

1309 or the Monitor, you must ensure that all IEEE-488 instruments are

switched off before connecting or disconnecting the interface cables.

The IEEE–488 address of each 1309 in the system must be set before

communication with the PC can occur. The address is set using the eight

DIP switches located on the back panel of the 1309. The decimal

address of the instrument is expressed as a binary number, the MSD

(Most significant DIP switch) being to the left looking onto the back

panel. Table 2.4 will guide you.
