Precautions on Proper Operation (cont’d)
 
 
Network Connection 
 
The PC is equipped with Ethernet ports for network connectivity. 
Performing a network connection using the Ethernet requires 
extensive knowledge of the network environment. Such a connection 
should be undertaken in consultation with the Network Administrator. 
(1)  Connecting a cable to an Ethernet port is carried out by Hitachi 
Science installation engineers or service engineers.    Consult 
your nearest Hitachi Science service representative for details. 
(2)  Ethernet cables are not included as part of the system. Cables 
should be procured as necessary. For detail, refer to
 
About 
Changes in Computer Settings in this chapter.   
(3)  For a network connection, setting in the PC should be modified 
with adequate care. Unwittingly changing the settings required by 
the operation of the system can disable the system. 
(4)  No special software should be installed for network connection. 
Such software can adversely impact the system and even disable 
it.    When connecting your system to a special network, please 
consult the sales representative or the Service Department that 
handles your system. 
(6)  Connecting to an external device, such as EDX, using an optional 
external communications interface requires the use of an 
Etherport. Therefore, for connecting to a device other than an 
external device, a branching hub should be procured. Some 
external devices come equipped with a standard hub, which 
should be verified with your servicing sales representative. 
(7)  A network connection using the Microsoft TCP/IP protocol 
requires an IP address, which should be set up in consultation 
with a Network Administrator. Connecting to an external device, 
such as EDX, requires another IP address specifically for 
connection to that device.   
 
NOTICE  The user is requested to prepare a proper Computer 
viruses protection on his or her own responsibility with 
consulting to the network administrator. It is not 
guaranteed Failure of instrument or damage of basic 
software, application software or other data due to a 
computer virus.
(For detail, refer to Protection against 
Computer Viruses in this chapter.
