2.3. Pump Communications Protocols
Adagio is responsible for selecting and fulfilling the communications
protocol suitable for each pump with which it will communicate.
The communications protocol of each model that the application will utilize
is described in the pump’s corresponding user’s manual.
Adagio uses a 250 ms command latency when communicating with both
the Legato 200 and Legato 100.
Adagio is thus responsible for sending the corresponding commands to
each pump (from their particular commands set) in order to control them.
Within a daisy-chain network topology, you must configure all the
pumps to have the same communication parameters (baud rate)
USB-based pumps are controlled by Adagio through a “virtual” serial
port automatically created by the pump’s driver. Thus, all pumps are
considered to be connected to the PC by means of a serial port
(virtual or physical).
