PC Control / Touch Control

3.10.1 Configuring a new device

Open the dialog System/Device manager.

Use [New] to open the device selection window. Select the device

type (Balance, Lab Link, Barcode reader, Titrando, Printer

(Touch Control only), PC keyboard (Touch Control only), Sample

Processor, Serial ports (PC Control only) or RS-232/USB Box

(Touch Control only)). With the exception of the Titrando (maximum

number 3) you can only log in one device of the same type. In this

way it is possible to write methods for various Titrandos or a USB

Sample Processor even when the hardware is currently not

available. The new device is entered in the list.

Enter the device data as described in the following section.

3.10.2 Editing device data

Select the device to be configured from the list and press [Edit].

You can enter a Device name for each device.

You can enter a Comment for each device.

3.10.3 PC Control and Touch Control

With the PC Control software the Program version, the Serial

number of the USB dongle ("authorization plug") and the Control

remote box are shown. If no dongle is connected, "demo version" is

displayed instead of the serial number. The Control remote box is the

interface at which, for example, lines for controlling a Sample Processor

during the determination sequence can be set and scanned

automatically (see Section 6.2). The first remote box to be recognized

after system start-up will always be used as the control remote box.

Titrando 1/4 means that the remote box is connected to MSB

connection 4 on Titrando 1 (name of the Titrando).
