2 Overview of the instrument

Magnet codes

Every single sample rack can be unambiguously identified by means of a magnet code. The Sample Processor can thus recognize automatically which rack is in place.

When replacing a rack, this should first be returned to starting position using the Rack initialization function (see "Manual Control" in the control software). This will enable an unambiguous recognition of the rack and thus the correct positioning of the beaker. A positioning table is assigned to each rack type in which each rack position is defined.

3.8 Connecting MSB devices

In order to connect MSB devices, e.g.stirrers or dosing devices, Metrohm instruments are equipped with up a maximum of four connectors at what is referred to as the Metrohm Serial Bus (MSB). Various kinds of peripheral devices can be connected in sequence (in series, as a "daisy chain") at a single MSB connector (8-pin Mini DIN socket) and controlled simultaneously by the respective control instrument. In addition to the connection cable, stirrers and the remote box are each equipped with their own MSB socket for this purpose.

The following illustration provides an overview of the devices that can be connected to an MSB socket, along with a number of different cabling variations.

The question of which peripheral devices are supported depends on the control instrument.

Note

￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭

When connecting MSB devices together, the following must be observed:

￭ Only one device of the same type can be used at a single MSB con-

nector at one time.

￭ Type 700 Dosino and 685 Dosimat dosing devices cannot be con-

nected together with other MSB instruments on a shared connector. These dosing devices must be connected separately.

Caution

Exit the control software before you plug MSB instruments in. The control instrument recognizes when it is switched on which instrument is connected at which MSB connector. The operating unit or the control software enters the connected MSB devices into the system configuration (Device manager).

MSB connections can be extended with the 6.2151.010 cable. The length of the connection must not exceed a maximum of 15 m.

3.8.3 Connecting a remote box

Instruments that are controlled via remote lines and/or which send control signals via remote lines can be connected using the 6.2148.010 remote box. In addition to Metrohm, other instrument manufacturers also use similar connectors that make it possible to connect different instruments together. These interfaces are also frequently given the designations "TTL Logic", "I/O Control" or "Relay Control" and generally have a signal level of 5 volts.

Control signals are understood to be electrical line statuses or brief (＞ 200 ms) electrical pulses which display the operational state of an instrument or which trigger or report an event. Sequences on a variety of instruments can thus be coordinated in a single complex automation system. No exchange of data is possible, however.

Proceed as follows:

Connect a remote box

￭ Exit the control software. ￭ Connect the remote box connection cable to one of the sockets

marked with MSB on the rear of the control instrument.

￭ Start the control software.

Metrohm guarantees that the deliveries and services it provides are free from material, design or manufacturing errors. The warranty period is 36 months from the day of delivery; for day and night operation it is 18 months. The warranty remains valid on condition that the service is provided by an authorized Metrohm service organization.

A. Dellenbach

Head of Quality Management

Glass breakage is excluded from the warranty for electrodes and other glassware. The warranty for the accuracy corresponds to the technical specifications given in this manual. For components from third parties that make up a considerable part of our instrument, the manufacturer's warranty provisions apply. Warranty claims cannot be pursued if the Customer has not complied with the obligations to make payment on time.

During the warranty period Metrohm undertakes, at its own choice, to either repair at its own premises, free of charge, any instruments that can be shown to be faulty or to replace them. Transport costs are to the Customer's account.

Faults arising from circumstances that are not the responsibility of Metrohm, such as improper storage or improper use, etc. are expressly excluded from the warranty.
