nTC

Clear tachometer counter

nRT

Read tachometer counter

For writing to pump number n display

nCA

Clear existing display; followed by:

nCH

"Home" cursor; followed by:

nW{text line 1}~{text line 2}@ (@ = terminator)

Notes on control codes

1

n = pump number set in SETUP. For the command to operate on all networked pumps

simultaneously, use # before the command.

2

There are 1046 tacho pulses per revolution at the maximum drive speed of 200rpm.

3

nDOxxxxxxxx where xxxxxxxx is any integer and is the target dose in tacho pulses.

This can be extended to nDOxxxxxxxx,yyy where yyy is a "kick back" in tacho pulses

with a limit of 255 (about 1 revolution on a 200rpm drive).

4

A show status command will prompt the 624Di to return a text string of the following

layout:

[pump type] [ml/rev] [pumphead] [tube size] [speed] [cw/ccw] [P/N] [pump number]

[tacho count as a single integer] [stopped/running, 0 /1] [! = delimiter]

eg 625Di 0.7 625L 4.8mm 100 CW P/N 1 157810 1 !

5

All networked pumps with the same n will respond to the same command.

6

There should be at least 10mS between consecutive commands.

7

When using the # to address all pumps, ensure that it will not generate a reply, eg

nSS; the result will be unpredictable.

This is a typical short program for pump number 2:

OPEN "COM1:9600,N,8,2,CDO,CSO,DSO,OP10000" FOR RANDOM AS #1

PRINT #1, "2SP220" + CHR$(13)

DELAY (command depends on language being used)

PRINT #1, "2GO" + CHR$(13)

DELAY 5000

PRINT #1, "2ST" + CHR$(13)

CLOSE #1.

Setup

ROM - provides user with software identification.

Date/Time - Set during manufacture but can be reset to user requirements.

Beep - Audible signal on/off.

Ramp - Rate of acceleration/deceleration of the pump to/from maximum set speed at the

beginning/end of a dose. 0 setting signifies no acceleration delay to maximum speed, 5

signifies the longest acceleration delay to maximum speed.

Drip - Brief reversal of the motor on dose completion ensures no extra drips of fluid are

dispensed. 0 means no reverse and 5 means maximum reverse.

Baud - Speed of signal transmission. Default setting 9600, range of setting include 1200,

2400, 4800, 9600.

Auxiliary - Monitor the pump dosing or motor state/direction of rotation using 2 high (5V)

/low (0V) auxiliary signals outputted via the pumps 25 pin cage clamp connector. Auxiliary

signals can be used, for example, to command a turntable or conveyor to move when a

dose has been completed.
