￭ Start the PC software.
The instrument is automatically recognized. The configuration dia-
log for the instrument is displayed.

3.3 Connecting MSB devices
In order to connect MSB devices, e.g. stirrers or dosing devices, Metrohm
instruments are equipped with up to four connectors on what is referred
to as the Metrohm Serial Bus (MSB). Various kinds of peripheral devices
can be connected in sequence (in series, as a «daisy chain») at a single
MSB connector (8-pin Mini DIN socket) and controlled simultaneously by
the respective control device. In addition to the connection cable, stirrers
and the Remote Box are each equipped with their own MSB socket for
this purpose.
The following figure provides an overview of the devices that can be con-
nected to an MSB socket, along with a number of different cabling varia-
tions.
