CombiFlash Torrent® User Manual - Isco

Section 1 Introduction
1.3 Operating Overview
The Torrent is equipped with a touch screen display for local
control.
The system supports TCP/IP communication. This allows
direct control of the Torrent by a Windows computer via a
cross-over cable between Ethernet ports of the Torrent and the
computer. The Windows computer must have Microsoft
Internet Explorer 7 or newer.
TCP/IP communication also allows remote control via an
established network. Remote controlling devices on the
network can be a Windows PC or an Apple mobile digital
device (iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad).
Note
Teledyne Isco recommends that you obtain assistance from your
Information Technology department before attempting direct or
network connections to a Windows computer.
1.3.1 Multiple Control Possibilities
The system can be accessed from the built-in touch panel and
up to ten network computers. The touch panel shares control
with all connected computers. The system performs the most
recent command from any control input.
1.3.2 File Storage
To support operation from a variety of direct and network
connections, the CombiFlash Torrent stores the software and
all files on an internal hard drive. This ensures that your
compound purification methods and run history files can be
viewed from any connection. Optionally, individual run history
files may be saved to a USB flash drive and the hard drive or a
networked computer, and all run history files can be saved to a
network drive.
