2.2.3 Millennium32 Client/Server System

32
The Millennium Client/Server System consists of a server, one or more clients, and a
LAC/E32 Acquisition Server. Each computer in the Millennium32 Client/Server System
requires a network interface card.

Installing and Configuring Computer Systems 34

 32
Chromatographic devices in a Millennium Client/Server System or PowerStation are
32 32
connected to the LAC/E Acquisition Server. The LAC/E Acquisition Server provides

35 Installing and Configuring the Hardware

2.2.4 Optional Interface Cards
Note: Direct connection to the COM port on a stand-alone workstation or an acquisition
client without a busLAC/E card is allowed when you are acquiring data from a SAT/IN2
Module and a 474 Detector.

busLAC/E Card
32
The Millennium stand-alone workstation uses a busLAC/E card to function with the
32
Millennium software. Chromatographic devices connect to the busLAC/E card. The
busLAC/E card performs two primary functions:
• Acquires data from a detector and transmits the data to the computer
• Controls chromatographic devices
2
Note: The half-size PCI busLAC/E card supersedes the PCI and PCI-x busLAC/E cards.
32
The busLAC/E card is a microprocessor-based interface card that allows the Millennium
software to communicate with chromatography instruments. The busLAC/E card transmits
32
commands from the Millennium software to detectors, autosamplers, pumps, and other
devices over the IEEE-488 and custom interfaces using an IEEE-488 cable. Data from the
devices are transmitted through the busLAC/E card to the computer for analysis.
To install the busLAC/E card in the computer, see the installation instructions provided with
the busLAC/E card.

Note: The ISA busLAC/E card is not supported in Windows 2000 on the Compaq

Deskpro EN 9100 because the Adaptec™ SCSI card, which is required for the hard
drive, conflicts with the ISA busLAC/E card.

8-Port Serial Card

32
To interface the Millennium system with the 1100 Series system, 5890 GC/7673
Controller, 6890 Gas Chromatograph (GC), busSAT/IN Modules, or 474 Detector, an
32
8-port serial card is required in the stand-alone workstation or in the LAC/E Acquisition
Server. A single port on the card is used for each 6890 GC, 5890 GC, 7673 Controller,
1100 Series system, SAT/IN2, or 474 Detector, connected by a serial cable.
32
The 8-port serial card transmits commands from the Millennium software to the serial
instrument. Data from the chromatograph are transmitted through a single port on the
32
8-port serial card to the Millennium software for analysis.
To install the 8-port serial card in the computer, see the installation instructions provided
with the 8-port serial card.

Installing and Configuring Computer Systems 36

 Network Interface Card for a LAN

Note: A TCP/IP address is required.

32
Network interface cards are needed for the Millennium Client/Server System to
32
interconnect the server, clients, and LAC/E Acquisition Servers. A network interface card
is also needed to interface a PowerStation to the LAC/E32 Acquisition Server. The network
interface card connects all computers over the network for the client/server configuration
and for the PowerStation configuration.
32
All Millennium components purchased from Waters Corp. have the network interface
card preinstalled. However, additional setup at your site might be required.
2 Network cards usually use 10 Base T cables.

2.3 Connecting IEEE-488 Chromatographic Devices

Use this section to connect the IEEE-488 components of your chromatographic system to
32
the busLAC/E card in a stand-alone workstation or a LAC/E Acquisition Server.

Note: The Millennium software supports the use of one 996/2996 PDA Detector at a full
32
data rate of 10 spectra/sec. At this rate, the Millennium software supports one additional
chromatographic system with a data rate of 10 points/sec. If you use a 996/2996 PDA
Detector at half spectra or a data rate of 5 spectra/sec, you can run three other
chromatographic systems with an aggregate data rate of 30 points/sec.

2.3.2 Interface Overview

The IEEE-488 bus is an instrument interface that connects devices using one
32
communication protocol. In the Millennium system, the IEEE-488 interface connects
Waters IEEE-488 chromatography devices to the busLAC/E card.
The busLAC/E card is an instrument controller, assigning the role of active talker or
listener to each attached device on the IEEE-488 bus. Each instrument designated as an
active talker supplies information to the other devices on the IEEE-488 bus. Each device
designated as a listener receives information from an active talker device. Only one active
talker is allowed at a time, but several listeners can be active simultaneously.

39 Installing and Configuring the Hardware

2.3.3 Interface Guidelines
According to IEEE-488 protocol specifications, use the following guidelines:
• Always keep all devices powered on while your system is in use.
• The maximum number of devices that can be connected together to form one
interface system is 15 (14 instruments plus the busLAC/E card).
• The maximum total cable length to connect the devices and the busLAC/E card in
one interface system is 2 meters (6.5 feet) times the number of devices, or 20 meters
(65 feet), whichever is smaller (see Table 1-4).
• The maximum cable length between two devices is 4 meters (13 feet).
• The minimum cable length between two devices is 1 meter (3.25 feet). 2
Attention: Cable lengths greater than the maximum values or less than the
STOP minimum values can cause IEEE-488 communication failures. Use the
minimal cable lengths to ensure proper signal transmission.

Note: For details on setting IEEE-488 device addresses, see Section 2.3.6, Setting
IEEE-488 Device Addresses.

• Use addresses 2 through 29 for instruments.

• While a system is active on the IEEE-488 bus, do not power on or off any device on
the bus.

Note: Powering on or off a 2487 Detector or LC Module 1plus while a system is

active on the IEEE-488 bus interrupts communications. To reestablish
communications after powering up a 2487 Detector or LC Module 1plus, use the
Configure System window (see “Configuring a New Chromatographic System” in the
32
Millennium Help).

2.3.4 Making Cable Connections

The Millennium32 system supports the Waters IEEE-488 devices in Table 1-5.
To connect IEEE-488 devices:
1. Connect the single-receptacle end of the IEEE-488 cable (supplied with the
32
Millennium system) to the busLAC/E card (Figure 2-3).

2. Connect the other end of the IEEE-488 cable (with the stackable connector for
daisy-chaining additional instruments) to the IEEE-488 connector on an instrument.
3. Use one end of another IEEE-488 cable to connect to the stackable connector on
the first instrument. Connect the other end of the cable to the IEEE-488 port on the
next instrument.
4. Repeat step 3 for each additional instrument, up to 14 IEEE-488 instruments. See
Table 1-4 for cable-length limitations.

Note: The order in which you connect IEEE-488 devices to the busLAC/E card is
not important. For example, you can connect the injector either before or after the
detector.

5. Ensure that all IEEE-488 cable connector screws are fastened finger tight.

2.3.5 Making Device Connections

PCM Connections
The Waters Pump Control Module (PCM) is an IEEE-488 device that controls the 500
Series Pumps. Connect the PCM to the IEEE-488 bus as described in Section 2.3.2,
Interface Overview.

41 Installing and Configuring the Hardware

TCM Connections
The Waters Temperature Control Module (TCM) is an IEEE-488 device that regulates the
temperature of up to three column heaters. Connect the TCM to the IEEE-488 bus as
described in Section 2.3.2, Interface Overview.

Pump Connections
If you are using a 2690/2695 Detector, 600 Series Pump (Waters 600E, 616, 625 LC, 626,
650E, ActION Analyzer, Delta Prep 2000, Delta Prep 3000, Delta Prep 4000, and Prep LC
3000), or the LC Module 1plus system, you can connect to the busLAC/E card through the
IEEE-488 port or to other IEEE-488 devices in a stacked configuration (see Section 2.3.2,
Interface Overview).
2
Note: If you are using a PowerLine™/Gradient version of software on your 600 Series
Multisolvent Delivery System or LC Module 1plus system, configure the controller software
as a gradient controller through the front panel keypad (not through the Millennium32
software). See the appropriate operator's guide for information on configuring the
controller.

Injector Connections
32
Detectors and system controllers that are not controlled by a Millennium system (for
example, 2690/2695, 600 Series controller, and GC) require an inject start trigger signal
(contact closure) from the injector as each injection occurs. The inject start trigger signal
instructs detectors and system controllers to acquire data or run methods.
Waters autosamplers transmit the inject start signal either over the IEEE-488 bus or by
trigger wire. If you connect a Waters 2690/2695, 715, 717, 717plus, or an LC Module
1plus to an IEEE-488 interface, you do not need to make any additional connections for an
inject start signal.
When under IEEE-488 control, the 2690/2695 Sample Management System, 715
UltraWISP™, 717 and 717plus Autosamplers, and the LC Module 1plus system transmit
the inject start signal directly over the IEEE-488 bus during data acquisition. All controlled
devices are triggered simultaneously when an injection is made by these instruments.
Trigger wires are not required when all instruments in a chromatographic system are
controlled over the IEEE-488 bus and the busSAT/IN Module.

32
Note: Any instrument that is not controlled by the Millennium software requires an inject
start trigger wire connection (see Section 2.4.4, Injectors).

Connecting IEEE-488 Chromatographic Devices 42

 Detector Connections
Detectors with an installed IEEE-488 interface can be connected directly to the busLAC/E
card as described in Section 2.3.2, Interface Overview.
Detectors that do not include an IEEE-488 interface must be connected to a busSAT/IN
Module for data collection. The busSAT/IN Module then connects to the I/O distribution
box or IEEE-488 interface (see Section 2.4.1, I/O Distribution Box).

2.3.6 Setting IEEE-488 Device Addresses

You must set a unique address for each device connected on the IEEE-488 bus so that the
busLAC/E card recognizes each device. Valid IEEE-488 instrument addresses are 2
2 through 29. Set the IEEE-488 addresses of the Waters instruments in your system
through either the software or DIP switches (Figure 2-4) as indicated in Table 2-1.

Setting IEEE-488 Addresses Using Software 2

To set an IEEE-488 address using software, set the address from the front panel of the
device.

Note: See the operator's guide for a particular device for detailed instructions on setting
the IEEE-488 address.

Scanning the IEEE-488 Bus

After you set the IEEE-488 address for a device, the busLAC/E card must scan the
IEEE-488 bus. To scan the IEEE-488 bus, see “Scanning the busLAC/E Card for Serial
Instruments” in the Millennium32 Help.

32
Note: For the LAC/E Acquisition Server with the Millennium Service, the busLAC/E
automatically scans the IEEE-488 bus on startup.

Setting IEEE-488 Addresses Using DIP Switches

To set an IEEE-488 address using DIP switches:
1. Ensure that no instruments are connected to the busLAC/E card.
2. Power off the IEEE-488 device.
3. Using the DIP switches on the rear panel of the device (see Figure 2-4), set a
unique IEEE-488 address for the device.

Note: Although there are 28 valid addresses (2 through 29), IEEE-488 protocol
allows up to 14 devices.

Connecting IEEE-488 Chromatographic Devices 44

 • To set the IEEE-488 address for a Waters 600 Series Controller, 410 Detector,
996/2996 Detector, PCM, or TCM, see Table 2-2.
• To set the IEEE-488 address for a Waters 715 Injector, see Table 2-3.

2.4 Connecting Non-IEEE-488 Chromatographic

Devices
Some non-IEEE-488 devices produce analog output signals. A busSAT/IN Module
converts the analog output signals to digital signals, then transmits those signals to the
busLAC/E card. The busLAC/E card is connected to an I/O distribution box. Supported
non-IEEE-488 chromatography devices connect through an I/O distribution box, a PC
COM port, or an optional 8-port serial card.

 Non-IEEE-488 chromatography devices communicate with the busLAC/E card through the
I/O distribution box over serial cables. The I/O distribution box allows you to connect:
• Up to four non-IEEE-488 devices
• Up to eight non-IEEE-488 detectors using busSAT/IN Modules
Follow the instructions in the Waters busLAC/E Installation Guide to unpack and install
the I/O distribution box.
The I/O distribution box uses a specific I/O distribution cable to connect to the busLAC/E

32
converted to digital signals for use by the Millennium Chromatography Manager.

The busSAT/IN Module communicates with the busLAC/E card through the I/O distribution
box (Figure 2-5). The I/O distribution box supports up to four busSAT/IN Modules. Each
busSAT/IN Module supports up to two chromatographic detectors. Therefore, the I/O
distribution box allows you to connect up to eight non-IEEE-488 detectors using
busSAT/IN Modules.

49 Installing and Configuring the Hardware

 The busSAT/IN Module can be connected to a busLAC/E card, 8-port serial card, or PC

Attention: Do not power on the busSAT/IN Module until you perform all procedures
STOP described in the Waters busSAT/IN Module Installation Guide, or you may damage the unit
and void the warranty.
Always disconnect the power cord of the busSAT/IN Module at either the wall outlet or the
power supply before attaching or removing the power connection to the busSAT/IN
Module. Failure to do so might damage the unit because the busSAT/IN Module does not
have an On/Off switch.

To connect the busSAT/IN Module:

1. Follow the instructions in the Waters busSAT/IN Module Installation Guide to
unpack and install the busSAT/IN Module.
2. Connect other non-IEEE devices, as described in the following sections:
• Section 2.4.3, Pumps
• Section 2.4.4, Injectors
• Section 2.4.5, Detectors

Connecting Non-IEEE-488 Chromatographic Devices 50

 • Section 2.4.6, Alliance GPC 2000 Series Systems
• Section 2.4.7, 150C plus and 150CV plus Systems
3. To identify the serial instruments you connect to an acquisition server, access the
properties of the acquisition server in Configuration Manager, then click the Serial
32
Ports tab (see “Scanning the busLAC/E” in the Millennium Help).

2.4.3 Pumps
If you are using a Waters 500 Series pump with the PCM module, use a pump control
cable to connect the pump to the PCM. The pump control cable transmits the pump control
data to the pump.

2 Connect the pump control cable to the PUMP A, PUMP B, or PUMP C connector on the
PCM and on the pump.

2.4.4 Injectors
32
Detectors and system controllers within a Millennium system require an inject start
trigger signal (contact closure) from the injector as each injection occurs. The inject start
trigger signal instructs detectors and system controllers to acquire data or run methods.
Autosamplers and manual injectors transmit the inject start signal either over the
IEEE-488 bus or by trigger wire.
The following manual injectors and autosamplers require inject start trigger wire
connections to external devices:
• U6K manual injector
• External manual injector or non-Waters autosampler
• GC autosampler
• 712 WISP Autosampler
The trigger wire connections for each type of injector appear in Table 2-5.

Attention: Be careful to maintain trigger wire polarity (for TTL trigger) between devices to
STOP avoid closing the inject start circuit. If you cross the trigger wires, some devices might not
receive the inject start signal. When the injector starts the run, some devices might
32
become active but others might not, causing the Millennium system to remain in the
inject wait state. Also, if you cross the trigger wires, some devices might start when the
instruments are set up, before an inject start signal is transmitted.

51 Installing and Configuring the Hardware

 If you need to trigger multiple instruments with the inject start signal, connect the trigger
wire from the injector to the inject start input terminal on each device using one of the
following configurations:
• Attach trigger wires from the same terminal on the autosampler to each device.
• If the autosampler has more than one inject start terminal, attach each device to a
separate inject start terminal. This eliminates the possibility of closing the inject start
circuit.
• Attach the terminal from the autosampler to the inject start terminal on the first
device, then jump the inject start terminal from the first device to that of the second
device, and so on (stacking the devices).
If you are running the 712, 715 UltraWISP, 717, or 717plus Autosampler in stand-alone
mode, connect the trigger wires from the Inject Start terminal on the 712, 715, 717, or
2
717plus terminal strip to the device terminals in Table 2-5.
If you are using the U6K or other external injector, connect trigger wires from the U6K or
external injector (manual or autosampler) to the device connections in Table 2-5. Use
either of the chart mark cables on the U6K.

2.5 Installing Gas Chromatographs

2.5.1 GC Instrument Control

32
The following GC instruments can be controlled by the Millennium software through the
serial interface:
• 5890 GC
• 7673 GC Controller or G1512A Controller
• 6890 GC
32
These instruments constitute a GC system when connected to Millennium software
through one of the following:
• 8-port serial control card
• I/O distribution box (busLAC/E control: 5890/7673 only)
• busSAT/IN Module (no control; data collection only)

Note: For specific communications information, see the operator’s guides for the GC
instruments.

55 Installing and Configuring the Hardware

2.5.2 GC Data Overview
The gas chromatograph (GC) generates both analog and digital data. When controlled
32
through Millennium software, the digital data is collected (see Section 2.5.3, Digital
Output Configuration). You can also collect the analog data through a SAT/IN module with
32
control of the GC through Millennium software (see Section 2.5.4, Analog Output
Configuration). In addition, you can configure a system with a 5890 GC and a G1512A
Controller emulating a 7673 Controller (see Section 2.5.5, Alternative Setup for a 5890
GC).

2.5.3 Digital Output Configuration

32
Millennium software communicates with the GC through an RS-232 card in the GC. One
communication port (busLAC/E for 5890/7673 or 8-port serial card for all supported GCs)
2
both sends control information to the GC and receives data back from the GC.
The following sections describe digital output configurations:
• 5890 GC, 7673 Controller, and busLAC/E Card
• 5890 GC, 7673 Controller, and 8-Port Serial Card
• 6890 GC, G1512A Controller, and 8-Port Serial Card
• 6890 Plus GC and 8-Port Serial Card

Installing Gas Chromatographs 56

 5890 GC, 7673 Controller, and busLAC/E Card
You can install a GC system consisting of a 5890 GC and 7673 Controller. Each GC
system uses two serial ports on the I/O distribution box (one for each device) to
communicate with the busLAC/E card.
32
To connect the 5890 GC and 7673 Controller to the Millennium System:
1. Using RS-232 cables, connect each GC device (5890 and 7673) to separate serial
ports in the I/O distribution box (Figure 2-10). In this configuration, two 5890/7673
systems can be supported because each GC and each controller occupies its own
I/O distribution box port.

5890 GC, 7673 Controller, and 8-Port Serial Card
You can also connect a GC system consisting of a 5890 GC and 7673 Controller through
an 8-port serial interface card (Figure 2-11). To connect the 5890 GC and 7673 Controller
to the Millennium32 System, use RS-232 cables to connect each GC device (5890 and
7673) to separate serial ports on the cables extending from the 8-port serial card. Each
serial card cable is labeled with the corresponding port (1 – 8).
When the 5890 and 7673 are controlled through the 8-port serial card, they are referred to
as 5890S and 7673S, respectively. The 8-port serial card should be installed starting at
32
COM address 3 on the computer, so physical port 1 on the serial card gives a Millennium
instrument address of 3, port 2 gives 4, and so on.

2.5.4 Analog Output Configuration

The busSAT/IN Module can be used to convert analog output from the GC detector to
32
digital data for processing by the Millennium System. The busSAT/IN Module can reside
on the busLAC/E or an 8-port serial card. Figure 2-14 shows a busLAC/E 5890 set up for
32
control through Millennium software (digital data) as well as collection of the GC analog
data.
The busSAT/IN Module, when used, occupies an additional (third) port on the I/O
32
distribution box. In this configuration, each Millennium workstation can support one GC
system. As an example, this section describes the 5890/7673 with a SAT/IN through a
busLAC/E.

Note: A SAT/IN can also be used to collect analog data from a 5890 GC or a 6890 GC
configured on an 8-port serial card.

To interface the 1100 Series instruments to the Millennium System:
1. Identify the module with the highest data rate to serve as the control module:
• If your 1100 Series System includes a variable wavelength (VW) or
multi-wavelength (MW) detector, use the detector as the controller, and make
connections to the detector.
• If your 1100 Series System does not include a VW or MW detector, the pump
acts as the controller, and you make connections to the pump.
2. With the power off, connect the cables as shown in Figure 2-16.

Note: The Equinox card has eight connectors. Write down the number of the
connector that you use to connect to the instrument. The connector number is
necessary when you configure the acquisition server.

This section contains the startup sequence for the Millennium Chromatography System

2 and its peripheral equipment.

32
Note: For information on starting up the Millennium Client/Server System, see the
32
Millennium Client/Server System Administrator’s Guide.

Attention: Ensure that the computer power supply is set correctly for your site. If it is set
STOP incorrectly, your computer may be damaged.

32
For proper operation of the Millennium System, power on equipment as follows:
1. Power on all equipment that is controlled through the IEEE-488 bus. Wait until any
internal diagnostic tests finish.

Note: You cannot run methods or method sets, or use Run Samples, unless all
devices on the IEEE-488 bus that are assigned to a system on the Millennium32
System are powered up and have passed any calibration tests.

Note: Do not power on or off any instruments connected to a bus running any
systems. Power on the pumps of an LC system first to establish a flow before
powering up the detectors. Also, ensure that the carrier gas is flowing before
powering up GC instruments.
32
2. Power on all equipment controlled by the Millennium System that is not under
IEEE-488 control, that is, all equipment controlled through the I/O distribution box
(busSAT/IN Modules, connected analog detectors, and GC instruments).
32
3. Power on all equipment not controlled by the Millennium System (for example,
computer peripherals such as printers).
4. Power on the computers.

81 Installing and Configuring the Hardware

 Chapter 3
Installing a Stand-Alone

Use this chapter to install the Millennium32 Chromatography Manager software v. 4.0 on a
stand-alone workstation.

Attention: Before installing any hardware or software, perform a full backup of your hard
STOP drives (see the instructions provided by the manufacturer of your computer).

3.1 Requirements
Before you begin the installation:
1. Ensure that the workstation has the required hardware and software (Table 1-1).
3
2. Log in to an account with administrator privileges.
3. Back up and defragment your hard drive (see the Microsoft documentation and Help
system) to ensure smooth installation of and optimum performance from the
32
Millennium software.
4. Close all applications, then restart the workstation.
32
5. Verify that your disk drive has enough disk space to install the Millennium software
(Table 3-1). The software can be installed on one or more drives.

Note: The default database numbers are set high so that users with large
databases can upgrade easily using the Millennium32 Setup wizard. If your disk
space is restricted, you can lower the maximum sizes. Especially in the case of
minimum disk sizes, check the disk space usage occasionally.

The minimum total disk size is 4.0 GB for a stand-alone workstation running

3.3 Installing Millennium Options
32 32
Before you install Millennium options, ensure that the Millennium software is installed
32
(see Section 3.2, Installing the Millennium Software).

3.3.1 About Millennium32 Options on Key Disks

32
Millennium software options are installed from 3.5-inch key disks onto the workstation
32
where the Millennium software resides. A separate CD contains the option sample
project files, which you need to restore after installing the options.
Ensure that key disks and CD(s) are stored in an accessible but secure location. Key disks
3 are required for installation, uninstallation, and reinstallation of the Millennium32 options on
the workstations. If you need to transfer an option from one computer to another, you must
place the appropriate key disk(s) in the originating computer during software removal, then
in the recipient computer during software installation.
32
In a stand-alone configuration, you can install a Millennium software option on only one
workstation per license. If you remove an option from one stand-alone workstation using
the original disk, you can install it on another.

Attention: Do not write protect disks.

STOP The option disks become unusable unless you uninstall the options before uninstalling the
32
Millennium software.

Note: You cannot install an option intended for a client/server system on a stand-alone
workstation, nor can you install an option intended for a stand-alone workstation on a
client/server system.

Once you have installed an option using the procedures in this section, the option is
enabled for all projects. You may disable the option for specific projects (see “Configuring
Millennium32 Software Options” in the Millennium32 Help).

93 Installing a Stand-Alone Workstation

3.3.2 Installing Millennium32 Options
Note: If you previously created an alias to a client/server server from a stand-alone
workstation, then deleted the alias, when you subsequently go to install an option disk on
the local workstation, the drop-down list will be empty (when it used to say local). Click OK
to install the option, and it will be installed successfully. If you keep the default installation,
the dialog box will say local. This is due to the fact that when you delete the last alias,
Oracle deletes the tnsnames.ora file.

To install the Millennium32 options:

32
1. Insert the Millennium Option key disk into the disk drive.
2. Select Start > Run.
3. At the Run dialog box, type the disk drive letter, followed by :\Setup.exe, then click
OK.
32
4. After a few minutes, the Millennium Option Setup dialog box appears. Ensure that
the name of the option that is being installed is correct, then click OK.
5. Do one of the following:
32
• If the option was not previously installed, a Millennium Option message
box appears after successful installation. Click OK to close the message box.
• If the option is already installed on your workstation, a Millennium
32
Option 3
message box appears. Click Cancel to close the message box.
• If the option is already installed on a different workstation, a Setup message box
appears. Click OK to close the message box. To remove the option from a
32
workstation, continue with Section 3.3.3, Uninstalling Millennium Options.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each option.

3.3.3 Uninstalling Millennium32 Options

If an option is currently installed on a different workstation and you want to transfer the
option to this workstation, you must first uninstall the option from its current workstation
using the appropriate option key disk.

Attention: Do not write protect key disks.

STOP Do not uninstall the Millennium32 software until you uninstall the options, or the options
become unusable.

To uninstall an option:
32
1. Insert the appropriate Millennium Option key disk into the disk drive of the
workstation that currently has the option.
2. Select Start > Run.

95 Installing a Stand-Alone Workstation

 Chapter 4
Installing a Client/Server or
Primary PowerStation
Use this chapter to install the Millennium32 Chromatography Manager software v. 4.0 on
32
the server in a Millennium Client/Server System or on a primary PowerStation.

The Waters CDs contain Oracle software (Oracle8i™, release 3, v. 8.1.7) and
32
Millennium software (v. 4.0). You have the following installation options:
32
• If you want to install Oracle software and Millennium software without changing the
default settings, perform the procedures in this chapter.
32
• If you want to specify some or all settings for Oracle software or Millennium
software, see Appendix A, Installing Custom Oracle Software, and
32
Appendix B, Building a Custom Millennium Database.

Attention: Before installing any hardware or software, perform a full backup of your hard
STOP drives (see the instructions provided by the manufacturer of your computer).

4.1 Server Planning

4.1.1 Overview
The database server runs two applications:
4
• Millennium Server – Responsible for writing raw data files from acquisition servers,
32
copying raw data from project to project (through the Millennium application), and
creating new projects.
• Oracle Database – Stores methods, audit trails, and specific raw data files
parameters (the data points are stored as external files controlled by Millennium
Service). During the server installation, you will be asked a number of questions
related to overall sizing information and where to install the various components.

Server Planning 96
 32
Millennium version 4.00 can install Oracle during the typical Millennium installation. If
you plan to use Oracle tools that are not part of a typical installation (for example,
Enterprise Manager), see Appendix A, Installing Custom Oracle Software, to install Oracle
32
before running the Millennium installation.
The Millennium32 Server installation program reads the amount of memory that your
system contains, then configures the Oracle initialization parameters based on three sizes
(Table 4-1).

Table 4-1 Oracle Initialization Parameters

Parameter 256 to 511 MB 512 to 1023 MB More Than 1 GB

db_block_size 4096 8192 8192
db_block_buffers 12000 12000 24000
db_file_multiblock_read_count 16 8 8
shared_pool_size 8000000 12000000 16000000
dml_locks 100 200 500
sort_area_size 256000 512000 1024000

The installation program assumes that the server will be exclusively used as the
32
Millennium database server. If other applications will be running on the server, adjust the
initialization parameters accordingly.

4.1.2 Memory Considerations

The server in a client/server system or primary PowerStation requires sufficient memory
32
for Oracle8i and Millennium software to operate. The amount of required memory
depends on the number of applications, users, and the operating system. The largest
4 quantity of memory is used by Oracle. When Oracle initializes, it creates a space in
memory for most of the Oracle functions, called the SGA (for more information about the
SGA, refer to Oracle documentation or your database administrator). The server must
have adequate memory, and the memory must be configured correctly. The amount of
32
required memory depends on the number of client and LAC/E computers, users,
chromatograms per project, and number of integrated peaks per channel.

97 Installing a Client/Server or Primary PowerStation

4.1.3 Disk Space Considerations
Each PowerStation (Table 1-2) or client/server system (Table 1-3) requires sufficient disk
32
space for Oracle8i (database) and Millennium software (Table 4-2).

Table 4-2 Minimum Disk Space Requirements

Purpose Minimum Free Space Drive

Temporary Install Files 200 MB System-drive
Permanent Oracle Files 15 MB System-drive
32 a
Millennium Program Files 750 MB Program-drive
32
Millennium Raw Data Files 200 MB RawData-drive
32 b
Millennium Database 1.3 GB Database-drive
a. If you use the Waters CD to install Oracle, 750 MB are required. If your server already has Oracle,
125 MB are required.
b. This assumes 20 users and a small database.

The various software components should be installed on multiple drives to maximize

performance and the ability to recover from disk failures. Table 4-2 contains the minimum
requirements at installation. However, you must also account for additional disk space
when the system is operational.
The following considerations should be made when sizing drives for future use.

Millennium32 Program Files

• Millennium and Oracle application files – Fixed size at installation; approximately
750 MB.
• Archive log files – 10 MB each; based on the number of database changes (new
chromatograms, results, calibration curves, methods or changes to existing
4
methods). The number of archive log files maintained on the server depends on how
often a database is backed up and the overall activity.

Millennium32 Raw Data Files

• Default project raw data files – Fixed size at installation; approximately 200 MB.
• Chromatography raw data files – Variable; based approximately on sample rate
times run time times number of samples. PDA and MS files are bigger because
wavelength/mass range must be included. The total space requirement is based on
how often you archive and how many systems are creating raw data files.

Server Planning 98
 Millennium32 Database
Initial database datafile sizes are based on two parameters that you choose during
installation:
• Database size – Small, medium, or large
• Number of expected users – Fixed size at installation
The database datafiles are configured to autoextend. As projects, raw data files, and
results are created, the initial database datafile must autoextend to store all information.
Use Table 4-3 through Table 4-5 to calculate the approximate database size. These tables
list the space that is required for each database datafile to increment. The database
datafile will autoextend by the value in the Next column, up to the value in the Max
column.

Table 4-3 Small Server Database

Database Datafile Initial (MB) Next (MB) Max (MB)

System 200 200 600

System 400 400 1200
User 1000 1000 4000
Temp 200 200 800
Index 500 500 2000

Most information stored in the database consists of results. The actual tablespace used for
each result is based on the number of integrated peaks (named or unknowns). Additional
space is required when the suitability or pattern match option is enabled, or the data is
from a 3D detector and additional processing is requested (for example, a PDA channel
with multi-pass purity enabled).
If you have any questions on these recommendations, consult your Waters data specialist.

4.2.2 Configuration for a Server with Two Physical Drives

(PowerStation)
If your server has two physical drives (such as a PowerStation Primary PC) and you install
the database and raw data on the same physical drive, use this section to move the
location of the mirrored files to a separate physical drive.

Attention: If your server has two physical drives and you install the database and raw
STOP data on the same physical drive (regardless of whether it is configured as two or more
4
logical drives), Waters Corp. recommends that you change the location of the mirrored
control and redo logs files. The installation wizard assumes that the database drive and
the raw data drive are separate drives. If you do not move the location of the mirrored
files, the database recovery may be incomplete or in some cases impossible.

Paths that you enter, such as in step 2, must already exist.

5.5 Installing Millennium Licenses and Options
32
Before you install Millennium options (for example, System Suitability), ensure that:
32
• The Millennium software is installed (see Section 5.3, Installing the Client
Software).
• A database service name is available on the client to point to the correct database
(see Section 5.4, Configuring a Database Service Name).

5.5.1 About Millennium32 Licenses and Options on Key Disks

32
Millennium software licenses and options are installed on the database server from a
client using 3.5-inch key disks. Many options are available. Ensure that key disk(s) and
CD(s) are stored in an accessible but secure location.
32
Key disks are required for installation, uninstallation, and reinstallation of the Millennium
licenses and options. If you need to transfer a license or option from one Millennium32
server to another, you must uninstall it from the original client/server system before you
install it in a new client/server system. In a new installation, licenses and options must be
installed in the following order:
• Base key
• Licenses
• Concurrent Users (PowerStation only)
• Options
The number of allowed named users in the database is based on the number of Named
User Licenses you have purchased. You can create a number of accounts equal to the
number of Named User Licenses you have purchased. You install the licenses from any
client, then install all options, then set up your named accounts (up to the total number of
Named User Licenses).

Attention: Do not write protect key disks.

STOP Do not uninstall the Millennium32 software until you uninstall the options, or the options
become unusable.

Note: You cannot install an option intended for a Millennium32 Client/Server System or
PowerStation on a stand-alone workstation, nor can you install an option intended for a
5 stand-alone workstation on a Millennium32 Client/Server System or PowerStation.

Once you have installed an option using the procedures in this section, the option is
enabled for all projects. You may disable the option for specific projects (see “Configuring
32 32
Millennium Software Options” in the Millennium Help).

145 Installing a Client

5.5.2 Installing a Millennium32 License or Option
Install the Client/Server or PowerStation key disk first, then the options.

32 32
Note: To install a Millennium option or license from a client, the Millennium software
must already be installed on the client. You must also be able to contact the database. To
32
ensure successful installation, Waters strongly recommends that the Millennium
software not be running during installation.
32
To install a Millennium option:
32
1. Insert the Millennium Client/Server, PowerStation, or Option key disk into the disk
drive on a client.
2. Select Start > Run.
3. At the Run dialog box, type the disk drive letter, then :\Setup.exe, then click OK.
32
4. At the Millennium Option Setup dialog box, ensure that the name of the option that
is being installed is correct, then click OK.
32
Note: Allow a few minutes for the Millennium Option Setup dialog box to appear.

5. Do one of the following:

• If a Millennium32 Option message box appears after successful installation
because the option was not previously installed, click OK to close the message
box.
32
• If a Millennium Option message box appears because the option is
already installed on your client/server system, click Cancel to close the message
box.
• If a Setup message box appears because the option is already installed on a
32
different Millennium Client/Server System, click OK to close the message box.
32
To remove the option from a Millennium Client/Server System, continue with
32
Section 5.5.3, Uninstalling a Millennium License or Option.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each option.
32
5.5.3 Uninstalling a Millennium License or Option
32
If you want to transfer a Millennium option from one server to another, you must first
uninstall the option from its current server using the appropriate option key disk. Licenses
and options must be uninstalled in the following order:
• Options 5
• Concurrent Users (PowerStation only)

32
Installing Millennium Licenses and Options 146
 • Licenses

 Chapter 7
Installing the Millennium
Service
Use this chapter to install the Millennium Service as a separate service on a computer
32 32
other than the Millennium database server to provide file services for Millennium clients
on the network.
7
Attention: Before installing any hardware or software, perform a full backup of your hard
STOP drives (see the instructions provided by the manufacturer of your computer).

32
Note: A server that has Millennium software v. 4.0 already has the Millennium Service.
32
Note: Millennium v. 4.0 does not support Distributed File System (DFS, part of the
Windows 2000 Server operating system) with the Millennium Service.

Note: The InstrumentServer directory can be protected from tampering by setting it to Full
Control for whatever the Millennium Service runs as (usually Local System) and Read
Only for everyone else.

7.1 Considerations and Requirements

Considerations
The Millennium Service allows specific computers that are running the Millennium Service
32
to have raw data shares configured for them in Millennium and users can store project
raw data on these file shares.
The Millennium Service runs as a Windows NT or Windows 2000 Service to provide
secure access to Millennium32 raw data files through the Millennium32 application. While
32
the operating system permissions on the files can be set to read-only for Millennium
users, these same users can have write privileges through the Millennium Service when
32
running Millennium software.

Considerations and Requirements 172

Appendix D
Adding a Listener Service
Use this procedure to add a listener service. You must configure listener services on the
server to provide adequate connection performance between the server and your clients.
As a general rule, configure one listener service for every 20 clients and LAC/E32
32
Acquisition Servers on your system. If clients or LAC/E Acquisition Servers are added to
your system after the original installation, you may need to configure additional listener
services.
To add a listener service:
32
1. Select Start > Programs > Millennium > Oracle > Oracle Net8
Configuration Assistant.
2. At the Welcome page of the Net8 Configuration Assistant wizard (Figure D-1), click
Listener configuration, then click Next.
