The Network
Local Client/Server Installation

The Client and the (Chromatography) Server are located on the same PC. They must be started separately.

The controlled instruments in the chromatography system can be connected with the PC, e.g., via RS-232 ports, a DX-LAN, or a USB (Universal Serial Bus) connection. Additional interface cards can supply a sufficient number of ports. Each chromatography server can control a maximum of six controlled Timebases (chromatography systems).

The data is saved on the local PC. During initial installation of Chromeleon, a local datasource is installed on each local computer.

If the PC is part of a local network (LAN = Local Area Network or WAN = Wide Area Network), data can also be saved externally. In the same way, external data can be used for data editing.

If the local PC is connected to a network, all options of a  Network Installation are available.
