Connecting a 6890 to Empower

Does anyone have a copy of the ICS patch to configure a Serial Port for communication with a 6890 GC.

I've tried the Waters website but they only have the 7890 version listed.

If you do contact me at gknox@pos.ca

Please Ignore this. I was provided incorrect information.

Apparently I need a bespoke serial card & drivers.

If you are using the octopus cable and card, these are available more cheaply from the manufacturer, Waters don't like to tell you that.
Where can I buy the kit they use in CSI?

That may be, but I will still need the proprietary drivers to allow communication with the GC.

Okay maybe not such a useful piece of info if you only have one acquisition server!
