2.5.3 Serial Connections (RS232)
Many different instruments may be connected via the serial RS232
interface. In addition to all Metrohm instruments that support the
Metrohm remote control language (see page 125ff) any printer
with serial interface (or parallel interface and parallel/serial con-
verter) or a personal computer (PC) may be connected. Any other
measuring instrument may be controlled via RS232 interface, as
long as it supports serial data transmission.

the same RS232 interface parameters correctly for both instru-
ments connected (see page 25).
