I am using an Agilent 6890 GC that has a JetDirect 4100A card in it and I have to do the whole BootP stuff. I tried putting in a G1369A LAN interface card using the default IP address of 192.168.254.11 and was able to ping it just fine. When I open the G1701DA software, however, it gives an "8041 Cannot bring up GC" error. I tried restarting the computer and the instrument but still no luck. Here is the exact error:
App: msinsctl.exe, Method: DEFAULT.M, RunType: Sampl, Vial: 1
DataFile: C:\msdchem\1\data\0101001.d
Macro: GC6890, Cmd: GC6890DLL = dllinstall(_exepath$+"hpgc6m00.dll")
Msg:
Cannot bring up GC
Any help is appreciated as I would like to get away from having to use BootP and always have a dedicated IP address for my GC
