1 Introduction
1.1 Instrument description
The 944 Professional UV/VIS Detector Vario is an independent instru-
ment for the photometric determination of light-absorbing substances in
the UV/VIS range. It serves as UV/VIS detector within an ion chromatogra-
phy system.
The 944 Professional UV/VIS Detector Vario is operated with the
MagIC Net software. It is connected to a PC on which MagIC Net is
installed with a USB cable. The software detects the instrument automati-
cally and checks its functional readiness. MagIC Net controls and monitors
the instrument, evaluates the measured data and manages it in a data-
base.
Additional information on operating MagIC Net can be found in the docu-
ment "MagIC Net Tutorial" or in the software's online help.
