766 IC Sample Processor

90

For the 766 IC Sample Processor, the output lines 11–13 and the input

line 7 are occupied for the control of the swing head. These four lines

are not continued in the plug and ignored, when further instruments are

connected via the remote cable (see section 2.4).
Various remote cables are available to use the specific functions of the

individual instruments of the various Metrohm model lines (see section

2.4). Metrohm also delivers special cables on request suited to the

customer’s needs, which allow complex couplings (including foreign in-

struments).

Functional characteristics

Output lines

The 14 output lines of the remote socket can be separately set

(statically) in manual operation as well as during method processing

with the "Control" command (CTL). A 14-place bit pattern must be

defined for this. Every bit is assigned to an output line.

Output

13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

Bit

13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

(Bits are always numbered from right to left)

Example:

CTL Rm ************1*

sets the output line 1 to active (=set), that for example,
would switch on the pump of a connected 752 Pump Unit.

0

= inactive (high)

1

= active (low)

*

= no change

It is recommended to mask the output lines that are not relevant with a

asterisk (

*

) to prevent alterations to these line states.
