If the software on the milliK is already running, restart it by cycling the power or pressing
the
Restart/Update Software
button on the
Instrument
screen. This initiates the
automatic discovery process so that the milliK can detect any millisKanners connected to
it and assign channel numbers. The milliK will disable Channel 2, since it is always used
as the expansion channel input.
With a single millisKanner, the milliK assigns channel numbers 10 to 17 to the
multiplexer. The numbers (0 to 7) below each set of input terminals on the millisKanner
help to identify the terminals for each Channel (for example, the input marked as 4 is
Channel 14). The red LED (below the terminal posts) will light when measurements are
being made on that channel.
If you want to control the measurement system (milliK and millisKanner) from a PC,
connect the unused RS232 port on the millisKanner to a PC using a null modem cable.
You can still communicate with the milliK even though there is no physical connection to
it as the millisKanner will relay commands from the PC to the milliK and will relay back
responses from the milliK to the PC (see section 8 for further details).

You may connect up to four millisKanners to a single milliK, giving a maximum of 33
input channels (channel 1 on the milliK and channels 10 to 17, 20 to 27, 30 to 37 and 40
to 47 via millisKanners). The first millisKanner in a system is supplied with an analogue
