Part 1: Installation
Siting
The 505XY should be situated on a flat surface and is fitted with adjustable
feet to ensure that the unit can be levelled. Adequate area must be given to
allow tubing to pass from the 505L pumphead to the dispensing head of the
robot without kinking or unnecessary bends.
Electrical connection
The 505XY operates on single phase mains electricity only. It is fitted with a
mains voltage selector which must be set to either 120V for 100-120V
50/60Hz supplies or 240V for 220-240V 50/60Hz supplies.
The on/off switch of the 505XY is located at the mains socket as is the fuse.
A spare fuse is incorporated in the fuse holder and should be replaced with
the same value of fuse if used.
A mains cable fitted with a moulded plug is supplied with the 505XY, but if
another plug is to be fitted, the colour coding of the mains lead must be
observed.
The mains cable for 220-240V supplies is coded so that the live lead is
coloured brown, the neutral lead is coloured blue, and the earth lead is
coloured green and yellow.
The mains cable for 100-120V supplies is coded so that the live lead is
coloured black, the neutral lead is coloured white, and the earth lead is
coloured green.
Failure to
operate
Should the robot fail to operate, check that mains electricity is available at
the unit, that the voltage selector switch is in the correct position and that the
mains fuse is in tact.
There are dangerous voltages (at mains potential) inside the unit. If
access is required, isolate the pump from the mains before removing
the cover.
Interfacing with the 505Di
The 505XY has four connector/sockets on the rear panel.
· Mains socket
· 505Di socket
· RS 232 connector
· Floatswitch socket

· Ensure that the voltage selector, found on the underside of the unit, is
switched to the appropriate voltage - either 120V for 110V-120V
operation, or 240V for 220-240V operation.
· Plug the mains power lead into mains socket at rear of unit.
· Level the robot using the adjustable feet.
· Connect the interface lead into socket at rear of unit marked 505Di
socket. Connect the other end into the 25 pin Dee connector on the rear
panel of the 505Di using the interface lead provided, Watson-Marlow part
number 059.7021.000.
· An RS 232 connector is provided to allow connection to a P.C. for remote
control.
· The float switch socket enables a remote stop facility to be set up
providing an over-ride to a preset dispensing run.
· Attach the delivery end of the tubing from the 505L pumphead to the
dispensing head of the XY Robot.
505Di setup procedure
The 505Di which is to be used in conjunction with the 505XY should be fitted

Part 6: Memory facilities
Storing/recalling/reviewing memories
The XY robot has the ability to store and recall up to 50 settings, each setting
may have up to 20 character descriptions attached to it in order to describe
the type of fill, tray size etc. All operating information for the XY robot is
stored in a memory location, including the language in use as well as the
head speed and serial interface speed.

The display will show the current description stored for that location, or if the
location was previously unused the XY robot will suggest a description for
you as shown above, the format being the same as the status line when the
XY robot is operating. When the unit offers a description for a setup which is
being stored into a memory location, ensure that the description is different
from any previously stored setups to avoid any programs being overwritten.
Use the <4> and <6> keys to move the cursor left and right and the <2> and
<8> keys to increase or decrease the character to the left of the cursor.

Pressing the <5> key will copy the character to the left of the cursor to the
current cursor position. Press the ACCEPT button to store the description.
The operator is returned to the memory menu.
Recalling memories
From the memory menu press the RECALL button, the display will show:
R E C A L L M E M O R Y N O 0 1
A C C E P T Q U I T
Enter the memory number to recall using the numeric keypad, press the
ACCEPT button to recall the setup, or the QUIT button to return to the
previous memory menu. If the memory number entered does not contain a
valid setup, then the display will show:
* * * E R R O R * * *
M E M O R Y I S E M P T Y
Re-enter a valid memory location number, or use the REVIEW button, as

0 0 : R X C F F T R A Y X M
N E X T Q U I T R E C A L L
This is the description attached to memory location 01, pressing the NEXT
button moves to the next location with a valid setup stored in it, when the last
stored location is displayed and the NEXT button is pressed, the first
location is redisplayed. Press the RECALL button to load the contents of the
selected memory location and return to the main menu. Press the QUIT
button to return to the memory menu without recalling the memory location.
Error messages
If an attempt has been made to load an empty memory location, the display
will show:
* * * E R R O R * * *

A memory number, or the number of rows/columns as has been entered as
0. Re-enter with a number between 01 and 50.
If the calculated fill area exceeds the area the XY robot can cover then
display will call:
I N V A L I D S T A R T O R E N D
P O I N T S - R E S E T L I M I T S
This can be a result of changing the START point when the END is near the
left hand limit or selecting a honeycomb pattern which has a fill point outside
the available fill area.
If the set START point is to the left of the END point the display will call:
I N V A L I D S T A R T / F I N I S H
P O I N T S - R E S E T L I M I T S
Reset so that the START point is to the right of the END point.
