Configuration

The unit can be controlled from an external PC (using the dedi-
cated software labworldsoft) via the RS 232 C serial interface
fitted to the unit.

To increase safety when controlling the shaking unit from
a PC, enable the watchdog function for monitoring the
continuous serial data flow (see section watchdog func-
tion)

• The functions of the inteface lines between laboratory in-

strument and automation system are selected from the
specfied signals of the EIA-standard RS 232 C, corresponding
with DIN 66020 Part 1. The allotment of the bushing can be
taken from illustration.

• For the electrical properties of the interface lines and for the

allotment of the signal status, standard RS 232 C, corres-
ponding with DIN 66259 Part 1 applies

(see capture PC 2.1 cable).

• Transmission method:

Asynchronous signal trans-
mission in start-stop-operation

Interface and outputs

• Mode of transmission:

Fully Duplex

• Character format:

Character imaging acc. to data
format DIN 66022 for start-
stop-operation. 1 start bit;
7 character bits; 1 parity bit
[(straight (even)]; 1 stop bit.

• Transmission speed:

9600 bit/s

• Access method:

Data communication from
shaker to computer is only
possible on demand of the
computer.

Instruction syntax

Here applies the following:
• The instructionsare generally sent from the processor

(master) to the laboratory instrument (slave).

• The laboratory instrument exclusively sends on demand of

the processor. Even error codes cannot be spontaneously
communicated from the laboratory instrument to the proces-
sor (automatic system)

•Instructions and parameters as well as subsequent para-

meters are separated by at least o n e blank.
