The 6.2142.050 keypad must be connected to the

instrument rear panel at the keypad socket 17 pro-

vided. The instrument must be switched off before

doing this. Squeeze the connector together at both

sides in order to disconnect the connector.

After connecting the keypad, you can switch on

the 838 Advanced Sample Processor at the power

switch 16. The display on the keypad starts to

Route the connection cable of the Swing Head through the guide chain
of the tower and connect the Mini-DIN connector of the Swing Head

connection cable to the Swing Head socket on the rear panel of the
tower.

If a robotic arm other than the Type 6.1462.030 supplied as standard is

to be used, it will be necessary to make configuration settings. You will

require a 6.2142.050 keypad to do this.

Configuring the Swing Head and robotic arm

Since each type of robotic arm has different geometrical dimensions, it

is absolutely essential to adapt the Setup settings for the Swing Head

to the relevant type of robotic arm. No settings need to be made for the

robotic arm supplied as standard.

Changes are made in the Setup dialog box. The individual settings re-

late to:

• swing offset

• maximum swing angle

• swing radius

• swing direction

You can open the Sample Processor's Setup dialog by pressing the

<CONFIG> key on the keypad during switch-on of the instrument.
