Safety Considerations
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
AND MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THEM PROPERLY BEFORE YOU START OPERATING THE 1309 MULTIPOINT SAMPLER.
EXPLOSION HAZARD
THE 1309 MULTIPOINT SAMPLER IS NOT DESIGNED FOR USE IN
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENTS.
This means that the instrument must not be placed and operated in an
area with a potentially explosive atmosphere.
When monitoring potentially flammable or toxic gases it is essential that:
1) the instrument itself is placed in a well-ventilated area outside the
potentially hazardous zone; and
2) that a sufficiently long tube is connected to the “Sampler Waste Air
Outlet” so that the sampled gas is carried away to the open air or to
an extraction and/or filtration unit.
FLAMMABLE GASES IN EXPLOSIVE CONCENTRATIONS MUST NEVER
BE ATTEMPTED.
AVOID WATER CONDENSATION IN THE INSTRUMENT.
Liquids must be prevented from entering the instrument. It is therefore
important that warm humid gases are not drawn into a cold instrument
because condensation will take place. If such a situation is likely to occur
you should ensure that the gases are drawn through water-trap filters
water vapour in the gases and thus prevent condensation within the instrument. The water-trap filter should be used in the immediate environment of the instrument so it maintains either the same temperature,
or a lower temperature than the instrument.
Note: that some gases may be absorbed by the water trapped in the filter. This will reduce the gases’ concentration.

1.1 Description and Function
1.1.1 The Sampler System
The pneumatic system of the 1309 is shown schematically in Fig.1.1.
The sampler system is constructed of stainless steel (AISI 316) and
PTFE (PolyTetraFluoroEthylene) tubing to minimize adsorption of samples. The system has 12 inlet channels, each with a solenoid valve.
Each inlet channel has a tube-mounting stub on the front-plate of the
1309; to connect each channel to the respective sampling point. The 12
inlet channels converge into one; a three-way valve then directs the
gas sample to the Gas Monitor for analysis, or through the external
pump via the waste-air outlet on the 1309’s back-plate.
The 1309’s sampler system functions efficiently, transporting gas samples from the sampling point at approximately 4 metres per second.
However, this speed depends on the type of pump, the diameter of the
tubing and the length of tubing attached to the 1309. An air-filter is attached to the end of each sampling tube to keep the samples free of
particles.

2.1 Preliminary
2.1.1 Environment and Handling
The Type 1309 Multipoint Sampler is designed for use in environments
with temperatures between +5°C and +40°C (+41°F and +104°F) and
with up to 90% relative humidity (non-condensing) at 40°C.
Make sure to leave some space between the Rear Panel and the Wall,
or other obstacles, to ensure easy access to the mains supply. No other
special handling precautions are necessary.
2.1.2 Connecting the Mains Supply
The 1309 is operated from a 50 to 60 Hz single phase AC mains supply.
Voltage 100 – 240 Vac.
Before connecting the mains supply, the following checks and adjustments should be performed to ensure safe operation of the 1309.
2.1.3 Checking the Power Cord
Use the Power Cord delivered with the 1309 or check that the Cord
used is rated minimum 10A / 250V.
2.1.4 Checking the Fuses
Use a small flat-bladed screwdriver to prise open the flap surrounding
the AC Mains switch. See Fig. 2.1.

________________________________________________________________________
Again using the screwdriver, gently lever the fuse-holders out from
their slots. See Fig. 2.2.
Fig.2.2. Inserting the fuses into the 1309’s fuse holder
Use two 1.6A slow-blow fuses (LumaSense No. VF0007), they are sup-
plied with the instrument.
When replacing the fuse-holders, ensure that the direction of the white
arrows on each holder matches the arrows marked on the covering flap.
2.2 Connecting the 1309 to the System Controller
The 1309 is connected to the System Controller by the IEEE interface
bus, over which the 1309 receives the commands and data which control it. Further information about the cables available from LumaSense
to connect the 1309 to the IEEE interface bus, and about the IEEE interface of the 1309, are given in section 4.1.

2.3 System Use
The 1309 combined with a Gas Monitor and a controlling computer provides a system that offers wide-ranging monitoring capabilities. The
1309 makes it possible to perform multipoint monitoring tasks in many
different situations and environments, without changing the system
components.
An example of a multipoint, multi-gas monitoring system is shown in
fig. 2.3. In such a system, the sampler system takes a sample of the
return-air from the room, and delivers it to the 1412 for analysis. While
the 1412 performs one analysis, the 1309 takes the next sample for
analysis from the room.
Fig. 2.3 A typical sampling system, shown with an application example.
Up to 12 analyses can be performed simultaneously using one
1309. LumaSoft Gas Multipoint Innova 7850 Application Software gives control of all the functions of the system.
LumaSense Technologies has a 7850 Application Software to give full
coordination and control of all the sampling and monitoring functions of
such a system. The application software package can control one 1309
unit and one 1412.

2.3.1 Setting the Interface Address of the 1309
The 1309 uses a single interface address. The address is set using the
bank of eight DIP switches on the rear panel of the 1309. The last five
switches on the bank decide the interface address. These switches are
marked A1 (the least significant bit) to A5 (the most significant bit).
The switches represent binary values, as follows:
If the switch is down, it represents a binary “0”. See Fig. 2.5.

Fig. 2.5. Dipswitch settings binary “0”
If the switch is up, it represents a binary “1”. See Fig. 2.6.
Fig. 2.6 Dipswitch settings binary “1”
The default interface address of the 1309 is set to 01111 (decimal value 15), see Fig. 2.7. If this is not suitable for your system, use the
switches to set an address appropriate to your system.

2.4 Connecting Tubing to the 1309
The 1309 is connected via tubing to:
the sampling points;
to the gas-monitor being used to analyse the gases that are sampled;
to the external pump.
Note: the performance of the 1309’s sampling system is dependant on
the type of external pump used and the length and diameter of the
sampling tubing.
Sampler tubing for use with the 1309 is available from LumaSense:
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), 50m roll, accessory number AF0614.
Using this tubing material minimizes the risk of gases being adsorbed
onto the tube’s surface, which would result in inaccurate measurements.
WARNING! Avoid water condensation in the instrument.
Liquids must be prevented from entering the instrument. It is therefore
important that warm humid gases are not drawn into a cold instrument
because condensation will take place. If such a situation is likely to occur, you must ensure that the gases are drawn through water-trap filters before they enter the sampler channels of the 1309. This will remove the water vapour in the gases and thus prevent condensation
within the instrument. Use the water-trap filter in the immediate envi-
________________________________________________________________________

Chapter 2
________________________________________________________________________
ronment of the instrument so it maintains either the same temperature,
or a lower temperature than the instrument. See section 2.4.3 for details of how to fit a water-trap filter.
2.4.1 Connecting Sampling Tubing
Before connecting sampling tubing to the 1309, determine approximately where the sampling points will be in the area to be monitored.
This will allow you to estimate the length of tubing you need to connect
to the mounting-stubs of the 1309.
To connect sampling tubing (see Fig.2.8):
Fig.2.8 Attaching sampling tubing to the 1309’s mounting stubs
1. Remove the knurled nut from the mounting stub of the sampler
channel you wish to use, on the front panel of the 1309.
2. Push one end of the length of PTFE through the non-threaded end
of the nut.
3. Push the end of the tubing onto the mounting stub as far as it will
go, and secure the tube by re-tightening the knurled nut onto the
threads of the mounting stub.

________________________________________________________________________
2.4.2 Connecting External Filters to the Sampling Tubes
The external filters, comprising filter, LumaSense accessory number
DS2306, and fitting, LumaSense accessory number UD5041 (optional
accessories), protect the 1309’s sampling airways from airborne particles such as dust, thus helping to prevent blockage of the airways.
The filter unit is attached to the tubing as follows (see Fig.2.9):
Fig.2.9 Attaching Fitting UD5041 and Filter DS2306 to sampling tubing
1. Push the Fitting UD5041 into the tubing.
2. Screw the short stub of the Filter DS2306 into the Fitting.
2.4.3 Connecting a Water-trap Filter
The In-line Genie Membrane Separator (LumaSense order no. UA1365)
avoids condensation in the sampling and measuring instruments. Use
the filter in the immediate environment of the instrument so it maintains either the same temperature, or a lower temperature than the instruments.
________________________________________________________________________
BE1285-15 1309 Multipoint Sampler LumaSense Technologies A/S
Page 18 of 42
Chapter 2
________________________________________________________________________
Note: some gases may be absorbed by the water trapped in the filter.
This will reduce the gases’ concentrations.
To connect sampling tubing to the water-trap filter
Push the sampling tubing into the connector as far as it will go and
tighten the nut.
Fig. 2.10 Attaching tubing to the In-line Genie Membrane Separator.
Note: make sure that the gas flows through the filter in the direction
indicated - shown by the arrows on the filter.
To disconnect the sampling tubing
Loosen the nut and pull the sampling tubing out of the connector.
2.4.4 Connecting the Sampler Outlet to the Gas Monitor
This connection uses the same tubing (PTFE, LumaSense No. AF0614)
as for the sampling tubes, section 2.4.1. The tubing is connected to the
Outlet to Analyzer stub on the rear panel of the 1309, and to the Air
Inlet stub on the rear panel of the Gas Monitor. The tubing is connect-
ed as described in section 2.4.1.

________________________________________________________________________
The Waste Air Outlet stub, next to the Outlet to Analyzer, (see fig.
1.3) stub on the rear panel of the 1309, connects the external pump to
the 1309’s sampler system. If you do not wish the waste air from the
pump to mix with the air in the room where the 1309 is positioned,
connect a length of PTFE tubing (LumaSense no. AF0614) to the waste
air outlet stub on the external pump and direct the tubing to a suitable
exhaust-point: for example, out of a window.
2.5 Connecting Temperature Transducers to the 1309
The 1309 has 6 temperature-sensor inputs mounted on its front panel,
(see fig. 1.2) suitable for direct use with the INNOVA Air Temperature
Transducer MM0034, Surface Temperature Transducer MM0035 or Operative Temperature Transducer MM0060.

All tasks performed by the 1309 are controlled over the IEEE/IEC interface from a System Controller; there is no other control possibility. This
chapter deals with the control of the 1309 from the user’s point of
view; for details of the IEEE/IEC interface specifications, refer to Chap-
ter 4 of this manual.
Sections 3.1 and 3.2 deal with switching-on and the general principles
of controlling the 1309. Sections 3.3 to 3.7 deal with the specific commands and requests, known as interface jobs, which set-up and control
the 1309. Each interface job is dealt with by giving an example which
states the effect of the job. For quick reference, an overview of all interface jobs is given in section 4.2 of this manual.
3.1 Switching-On
The 1309 can be switched on using the AC Mains switch on the backplate. After switching-on, the 1309 is set as follows:
The sampling-valves closed.
Internal three-way valve set to Waste Air Outlet.
3.2 General Principles of Controlling the 1309
The 1309’s functions are controlled over the IEEE/IEC interface using a
range of commands and data requests, each of which is specific to a
particular function or item of data. These commands and requests are
known as interface jobs. This section describes the structure of the in-
terface jobs used to control the 1309. Further details about the
IEEE/IEC interface of the 1309 are given in Chapter 4 of this manual.
3.2.1 Syntax for Interface Jobs
Fig.3.1 shows a diagram representing a single interface job, sent from
the system controller to the 1309. Each constituent part of the interface
job is explained below.

BE1285-15 1309 Multipoint Sampler LumaSense Technologies A/S
Page 22 of 42
Chapter 3
________________________________________________________________________
Fig.3.1. General syntax diagram for interface jobs
Job Headers
The job header specifies the function you want the 1309 to perform. It
consists of one or more words. The ASCII underline character “_” is
used to separate individual words in the job header. For example:
OPEN_SAMPLING_VALVE
A hyphen “-“ or a full stop”.” can also be used to separate words in the
job header.
The words making up the job header do not need to be sent in full to
the 1309; they can be shortened to a code-form, for example:
OP_SA_VALVE
O_S_V
The minimum code for each job header is usually the first character of
each word in the job header. This is written in bold characters in the list
of interface jobs given in section 4.2 of this manual. The 1309 accepts
job headers in both upper- and lower-case characters.
The Data Field
The data field contains further information specific to the interface job
defined by the job header. The data field is separated from the job
header by a space character (“SP”) or a comma “,”. In the following
examples, the separator will always be the space character, represented by the symbol “ ”. The data field will normally contain a numerical
value. For example:
OPEN_SAMPLING_VALVE
2
Some jobs may require more than one item of data. In this case, the
data is given item by item, separated by commas. For example:
OPEN_SAMPLING_VALVE 2,3,4
________________________________________________________________________
BE1285-15 1309 Multipoint Sampler LumaSense Technologies A/S
Page 23 of 42
Chapter 3
________________________________________________________________________
Numerical data for interface jobs sent to the 1309 can be in NR1, NR2
or NR3 form. This is a format for describing how the numerical data is
represented, for example:
NR1 data: 250 (number without decimal fraction or exponent)
NR2 data: 249.85 (number with decimal fraction, without expo-
nent)
NR3 data: 2.499E-2 (number with fraction and exponent).
Generally, any of these data formats can be used, unless specifically
stated otherwise in the interface job overview given in section 4.2.
The number of characters in the non exponent part of the data field
must not be greater than 8.
Job Terminators
Each interface job must have a terminator (signified by Te in Fig.3.1)
which tells the 1309 that it has received the complete interface job.
When the 1309 receives the terminator, it checks the whole job and, if
it is a valid job, carries it out.
The terminator for communication with the 1309 is an ASCII control
character, such as “LF”. This is the default terminator character used in
communication with the 1309. The terminator character can be
changed, as follows.
To select a terminator character other than the default, use the interface job Define_Terminator, followed by the decimal value of the character you wish to use. The possible terminator characters, with the corresponding decimal values, are shown in Table 3.1.
DEF_TERMINATOR
3<LF> Selects the control character ETX
(decimal value 3) as the terminator
character.
All of the following interface job examples assume the use of “LF” as
the terminator character.

3.2.2 Output Jobs – Requesting Information from the 1309
Interface output jobs request specific data from the 1309. The output
jobs allow checks of the 1309’s functions and set-up parameters. Output jobs consist of a job header followed by a question-mark; more
specific information is requested by including a data field. An example
of an output-job is:

3.3 Using the Sampler System
Using the 1309’s sampler system, see Fig. 1.1, to deliver a sample to
the Gas Monitor is a 3-stage process:
1. The required sample valve is opened; all other sample valves are
closed automatically.
2. The sample valve is connected to the external pump via the
1309’s internal 3-way valve, allowing the waste air to be exhausted from the sample channel (via the Waste Air Outlet,
section 2.4.4) and drawing the new sample.
3. When the new sample has been drawn to the 1309, the internal
3-way valve is set to direct the sample to the Gas Monitor. The
Gas Monitor’s pump draws the sample for analysis.
While the Gas Monitor is analysing this sample, the next sample can
then be drawn ready for the next analysis.
Three interface jobs control the sampling process.
Examples:
OPEN_SAMP_VALVE
CONNECT_SAMP_VALVE
TO_SAMPLING_PUMP<LF>
CONNECT_SAMP_VALVE
TO_MONITOR<LF>
1<LF>
Opens sample valve 1, closes all
other sample valves. If no sample valve is specified, all sample
valves are closed.
Connects the sample valve to
the external pump, and exhausts
the waste air from the sample
channel.
Directs the new sample to the
Gas Monitor for analysis.

The time taken to draw a sample depends upon the type of external
pump and the diameter and length of the sampling tube.
3.4 Temperature Measurement
The temperature measured by the Air Temperature Transducer
MM0034, Surface Temperature Transducer MM0035 or Operative Temperature Transducer MM0060 is read out from the 1309 as follows:

3.6.1 Status? Interface Job
This job reads-out the 1309’s current mechanical condition. The 1309’s
current condition is shown as a “flag”, i.e. a word-value comprising 16
bits, each of which represents a specific mechanical component. If a bit
is set, the 1309 is currently using the corresponding component. The
flag is output from the 1309 as the total of the decimal equivalents of
the binary values of the bits which are set. See Table 3.2 for the components represented by each bit in the Status flag, and their corresponding decimal values.

3.7 Error Conditions and Service Requests
If an error arises in the 1309’s hardware, processor system or software,
the 1309 can signal the system controller by generating a Service Request. The exact nature of the error condition can then be investigated
by using the Warning? or Error? interface jobs.
3.7.1 The Status Byte
The status byte is an eight-bit byte, read out by the system controller
as part of the serial poll sequence. The status byte gives the first indication of the cause of the service request. The status byte for the 1309
is shown in Table 3.3. For an error to generate a Service Request, the
corresponding bit in the status byte must be enabled to request service. The procedure for this is described in the following section.
When a service request is enabled, all bits in the status byte except bit
6 are reset by a serial poll read-out or resetting the status byte. Bit 6 is
only reset when the abnormal condition of the 1309 (identified by the
Warning? or Error? interface jobs, sections 3.7.4 to 3.7.5) is corrected.
When a service request is generated, bit 7 of the status byte is always
set; it cannot be disabled.

3.7.2 Enabling Service Requests
The specified bits in the status byte are enabled using the interface job
Service_Request_Enable. The required bits are specified by using the
decimal equivalent of their binary value, as shown in Table 3.3. See also the job examples below for further clarification.
Note that the relevant bits are always set whenever the corresponding
condition occurs; this job only enables or disables the generation of a
service request by that condition.
Examples:
S_R_E
S_R_E
S_R_E
The bits which are enabled in the status byte can be read-out using the
Service_Request_Enable? interface job:

For example, if the decimal readout is 48, the enabled bits are bit 5
and bit 6 (bit pattern 00110000 =
25 + 26 = 16 + 32 = 48 decimal).
3.7.3 Resetting the Status Byte
The job Reset_Status_Byte is used for this task.
Example:
R_S_B<LF> Resets the bits in the status byte to
zero.

Is set if an interface job sent to the 1309 is not recognised. This can be
due to an incorrect job header, incorrect syntax, or incorrect or missing
data. A job cannot be carried out by the 1309 if this flag is set. The
job’s syntax should be checked carefully and the job sent again. The
flag is reset by reading-out the Error Flags, or by switching the 1309 off
and then on.
Software Error Flag
Is set when the 1309’s software develops an error when running. When
this flag is set, the 1309 is reset automatically. The flag is reset by
reading-out the Error Flags, or by switching the 1309 off and then on.
If the error persists, have the 1309 serviced.
Power up Flag
This flag is set when the 1309 has been switched off and then on. This
flag is reset by reading-out the Error Flags. If the error persists, have
the 1309 serviced.

4.1 Introduction
The digital interface of the 1309 Multipoint Sampler is designed according to ANSI/IEEE Std 488-1978, “IEEE Standard Digital Interface for
Programmable Instrumentation”. The only significant difference between this and the digital interface of IEC Publication 625-1 is in the
type of connector specified; a full range of connectors and adaptors
from LumaSense ensures compatibility between instruments fitted with
either connector.
The 1309 is connected to other instruments with IEEE/IEC interfaces
using the following LumaSense cables and connectors.
Cable AO0265, which has an IEEE standard connector at each
end, connects the 1309 to other instruments equipped with the
IEEE connector.
Cable WL0845, which has IEEE connectors at both ends, is used
to connect the 1309 to the IEEE connector of the Gas Monitor.
The codes and formats used in sending and receiving data to and from
the 1309 over the IEEE/IEC interface have been designed according to
the recommendations of IEEE Std 728-1982, “IEEE Recommended
Practice for Code and Format Conventions (For Use with ANSI/IEEE Std
488-1978)”. Note in particular that the 1309 carries out all communications other than defined bus command sequences using ASCII (ISO
7-bit) coded messages.
It is important to note that although the digital interface of the 1309 is
designed according to IEEE Std 488 and follows the recommendations
of IEEE Std 728, absolute compatibility with IEEE/IEC interfaces designed by other manufacturers cannot be unconditionally guaranteed,
since differences can occur within the limits of the specifications. Any
problems encountered, however, will be of a software rather than a
hardware nature. Where compatibility is in doubt, contact your local
LumaSense representative for further information.
