Preface
About This Guide
This guide describes how to hardwire an Agilent®1100 Series LC to a Thermo Scientific
mass spectrometer and the data system computer, configure an Agilent autosampler for
contact closure from within the Xcalibur Instrument Configuration program, and trigger data
collection with an Agilent autosampler.
This guide also describes how to upgrade a Hewlett-Packard®1100 Series LC to an
Agilent 1100 Series LC with Ethernet communication.

In addition to this guide, Thermo Fisher Scientific provides Help available from within the
Xcalibur software.
Safety and Special Notices
Make sure you follow the precautionary statements presented in this guide. The safety and
other special notices appear in boxes.
Safety and special notices include the following:
CAUTION Highlights hazards to humans, property, or the environment. Each CAUTION
notice is accompanied by an appropriate CAUTION symbol.
CAUTION Highlights electric shock related hazards to human beings. Each electric shock
notice is accompanied by the international High Voltage symbol.
IMPORTANT Highlights information necessary to prevent damage to software, loss of
data, or invalid test results; or might contain information that is critical for optimal
performance of the system.

Safety Precautions
To connect the Agilent 1100 Series LC stack to a Thermo Scientific mass spectrometer, you
must install an external contact board in one of the Agilent modules and a LAN interface
board in a second Agilent module. To install a board, you must remove the cover from the
optional board slot. Figure 2 on page 6 shows the location of the slot on the back panel of the
detector.
Before you remove the slot cover from an Agilent 1100 Series module, do the following:
• Turn the power switch to the Off position and unplug the power cable.
• Refer to the Reference Manual for the module for additional safety information and for
information on preventing ESD damage caused by an electrical discharge.
