Optional Interface Boards

LAN Board

The HP LAN board is actually an HP JetDirect card, which is a network interface card used in HP printers.

One board is required per Agilent 1100 stack. If the Agilent 1100 stack has a DAD, then the DAD MUST be the module used for LAN board installation. If no DAD is present a pump should be used for the LAN board installation.

The LAN board can only be used together with:

A DAD/MWD/VWD/Pump/ALS with main board version G13XX-66520 and greater. An FLD/RID with main board version G13XX-66500 and greater.

a DOS-ChemStation software revision A.06.01 or above.

The following boards can be used with the Agilent 1100 modules.

LAN Boards

Agilent Order Number Supported networks

J4106A

Ethernet/802.3, RJ-45 (10Base-T)

J4105A

Token Ring/802.5, DB9, RJ-45 (10Base-T)

J4100A

Fast Ethernet, Ethernet/802.3, RJ-45 (10/100Base-TX) + BNC

 

(10Base2)

 

 

Minimum firmware of the LAN boards is A.05.05.

Recommended Cables

For point to point connection (not using a network hub) use a twisted pair cross over LAN cable (P/N 5183-4649, 10 feet long).

For standard network connections using a hub use category 5 UTP cables, (P/N G1530-61480, 8 m long).
