1 Introduction

1.1 The 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL in the Titrando system

The 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL is a component of the modular Titrando system. Operation is carried out by a Touch Control with touch­sensitive screen ("Stand alone" titrator) or by a computer with a corre­sponding software.
A Titrando system can contain numerous, various kinds of devices. The following figure provides an overview of the peripheral devices you can connect to the 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL.

1.2 Instrument description

Up to three control devices (Titrandos, Dosing Interfaces, USB Sample Pro­cessors etc.) can be controlled via USB connection by the Touch Control. With the tiamo software the system can arbitrarily be extended with con­trol devices.
Updating the device software is described in the manual for the Touch Control or in the tiamo help, respectively.
1.2 Instrument description
The 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL is a versatile instrument. It has been designed exclusively for usage in factories and laboratories and thereby covers a wide range of applications.
Thanks to the integration of high-performance USB interfaces, it can be incorporated seamlessly into a Metrohm Titrando system. The various communication possibilities of the Titrando system (Remote Box, LIMS connection etc.) can thus all be used. Thanks to these abilities, a 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL is predetermined for all kind of automa­tion tasks in a modern laboratory, especially for highly integrated labora­tory data systems.
￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭
The user interface of the Touch Control or the tiamo™ software guaran­tees comfortable operation and programming of the 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL. The comprehensive range of commands and the various configuration possibilities can comfortably and efficiently be used this way. The integration into the Titrando system also guarantees a 100% conformity of the complete automation system according to the regula­tions of the FDA (Federal Drug Administration), especially to the regulation 21 CFR part 11, electronic records and signatures.
There are exchangeable standard sample racks available for many vessel dimensions. Freely selectable "Special beaker" positions can be defined for e.g. rinsing or conditioning beakers on every rack.
The number of samples to be processed on a rack can considerably be increased by upgrading with a 786 Swing Head. The robotic arms for the 786 Swing Head make it possible to move to any given point on a sample rack. This way the number (a maximum of 999 rack positions) and sequencing of the samples is almost completely unlimited.
Customer-specific special racks for individual requirements can be fabrica­ted upon request.

2.3 Sample racks

A sample rack is a turntable that acts as a receptacle for sample vessels. Various types of sample racks are available for different numbers and types of sample vessels.
The 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL requires sample racks with up to a maximum of 48 cm diameter.
Figure 5 6.2041.840 Sample rack
Other user-defined racks can be supplied upon request and the required rack data can be loaded and configured in the control software. Any arrangement of rack positions is possible.
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.

3.5 Configuring the robotic arm
A variety of differently constructed robotic arms is available for enabling a wide range of applications. They differ from one another in their geomet­ric sizes, e.g. swing radius or maximum permissible swing angle. The con­figuration data must be entered in the Sample Processor or in the control software prior to the assembly of the robotic arm. The data required is engraved on the underside of the robotic arm. Examples of the most common robotic arms are shown in the illustration below.

Swing direction
Left-swinging (swing direction +) or right-swinging (swing direction –) model versions are available as different types of robotic arms. Left-swing­ing means swinging from the initial position (pointing towards the middle of the rack) outwards to the left.
In the case of a Sample Processor with two towers, a right-swinging robotic arm must be mounted on Tower 1, a left-swinging robotic arm on Tower 2. If the alignment is incorrect, the two robotic arms could possibly come into contact with one another, resulting in damage to the drives.
3.6 Mounting the robotic arm
Depending on the model, robotic arms can be mounted as either right­swinging or left-swinging. The position of the limitation screw of the robotic arm must be taken into account during assembly. The limitation screw must face the tower of the Sample Processor during the mounting of the robotic arm. The following illustration shows on the left the posi­tion of the limitation screw at a right-swinging robotic arm (Position 1) and on the right with a left-swinging robotic arm (Position 2).
￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭
Figure 15 Limitation screw at the robotic arm
For robotic arms which can be mounted in two different ways (e.g.
6.1462.050), the limitation screw can be fitted in accordance with the required assembly direction (see above).
Note
The configuration data of a robotic arm must be configured in the con­trol software before it is mounted (see Chapter 3.5, page 22).
Mounting the robotic arm
The mounting of a robotic arm on the Swing Head is described here, tak­ing as an example a 6.1462.070 robotic arm for titration and a
6.1458.040 titration head insert. Initialize the Sample Processor before performing the mounting sequence.

3.13 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
3 Installation
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.

3.13.3 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:
1
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.

6.1 Beaker sensor

6 Appendix

6.1 Beaker sensor
Every tower of a Sample Processor is equipped with a beaker sensor detecting the availability of a sample vessel in front of the tower. An infra­red sensor identifies devices of various materials if they are located in a correct position in the front of the tower. In the rack configuration of the control device or the control software, the setting 'Beaker sensor' Tower must be selected. The beaker test is carried out whenever a rack position is moved to in a method run.
￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭
Figure 35 Beaker sensor on the tower
The beaker sensor on the tower can only be used with single-row sample racks.

6.2 Rinsing nozzles

Using rinsing nozzles is very effective in order to rinse sample vessels (with sensors and buret tips) efficiently. Rinsing nozzles are available in two model versions:
￭ 6.2740.020 spray nozzle
For the fine-spraying of the rinsing solution. The nozzle has a small ball at the opening. The distribution (but also the backpressure) of the rins­ing liquid is clearly higher than the one of a rinsing nozzle.
￭ 6.2740.030 rinsing nozzle
The rinsing liquid is applied as a fine jet for optimal removal of layers on electrodes and on titration accessories.
