Safety
In the interests of safety, this unit should only be used by competent, suitably
trained personnel after they have read and understood this manual, and
considered any hazard involved.
Any person who is involved in the installation or maintenance of this
equipment should be fully competent to carry out the work. In the UK this
person should also be familiar with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
Do not place any part of the body within the working envelope of the 505XY
during operation.
There are dangerous voltages (at mains potential) inside the unit. If access is
required, isolate from the mains supply before removing the cover.
Information for returning the robot
Any equipment which has been contaminated with, or exposed to, body
fluids, toxic chemicals or any other substance hazardous to health must be
decontaminated before it is returned to Watson-Marlow or its distributor.
A certificate (a suitable blank form is included at the rear of these operating
instructions), or signed statement, must be attached to the outside of the
shipping carton.
This certificate is required even if the equipment is unused. If the 505XY has
been used, the fluids that have been in contact with the 505XY and the
cleaning procedure must be specified along with a statement that the
equipment has been decontaminated.

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
with EPROM version 2.03.
Ensure that mains power to the 505Di is on and the interface lead to the
505XY is correctly in position. The main menu of the pump will display:
D D S E C A L M A N U A L
N E T W O R K S E T U P
Step to SETUP and press Enter.
R O M D A T E / T I M E
B E E P R A M P D R I P >
B A U D = 9 6 0 0 A U X I L
P U M P = 1 M A X >
Using the step key, step through to AUXIL and press Enter, you will be given
an option under Line 1 of Dose or Motor:
L I N E 1
D O S E M O T O R
Press Enter at Dose.
The pump will then display the following message:
L I N E - 1
H I G H = R U N S T O P

Step to Stop and press Enter.
L I N E - 2 D I R E C T I O N
H I G H = C W
Press Enter at CW. The pump can be set to operate in a counter-clockwise
or clockwise direction for this setup procedure. The following screens will
then be called:
L I N E - 1 H I G H = S T O P
L I N E - 2 H I G H = C W
B A U D = 9 6 0 0 A U X I L
P U M P = 1 M A X >
Press Main Menu calling up the display:
D D S E C A L M A N U A L
N E T W O R K S E T U P
The 505Di can now be calibrated and the dosing parameters set in the
normal way. (For more information reference the 505Di operating instruction.
It is a recommended that a trial run of the 505XY setup is completed before
full process operation. This will ensure that the traversing limits of the 505XY
have been programmed correctly. (Refer to Part 5 of this operating
instruction).
Following calibration and dose setup the pump screen will indicate:
* * * *
M L
* * * * *
D O S E
P R E S S S T A R T
The GO button can then be pressed on the 505XY Robot and dispensing will
commence.
The 505Di should be set up normally as if for a manual dispensing run. The
505XY robot filler controls when the pump should start dispensing ensuring
that the pump will always wait for the dispensing head to finish moving to the
next position before it starts pumping again.
Note: If the 505Di setup is complete and the pump is ready to start a
dispensing cycle, turning the mains power of the 505XY robot on or off will
initiate a single dose from the 505Di.

Dispensing head
The appropriate dispensing head for the size of tubing being used should be
attached to the Y arm block by loosening the red knob and lifting the
dispensing head clamp.
The dispensing head can then be inserted into the slot, the clamp lowered
and the red knob re-tightened.
In order to obtain the correct dispensing height, adjustable feet are fitted to
the base of the system.
An adjustable tray guide is also fitted to ensure that the filler trays locate
correctly.
Fine adjustment can be made using the dispensing head. It can be raised or
lowered by simply undoing the adjustable red knob, and sliding the guide to
the correct (200mm max) height, then re-tighten.

Part 2: Overview
Quick start for a pre-programmed robot
To initiate a fill sequence on a pre-programmed XY robot filler switch on
power to the unit and the following screen will be displayed:
S O F T W A R E V E R X . X
M E M O R Y S E T U P G O
Ensure that the vial tray is located correctly within the tray guides
and press the 'GO' button to begin a fill cycle.
