WIMS has several methods for interfacing to lab Instruments.  The most common technique is to use the free Q12351 LIMS CSV Interface (see Hach WIMS SCADA & LIMS Interfaces for documentation and to download the install package).  Many instruments (and 3rd party commerical labs) produce csv files that can be cross referenced to WIMS variables and imported.  The following is a list of known instruments that we have interfaced to with links of how to interface, however any instrument that produces a CSV file should work.
