7.9 RS-232 Pump Network Configuration
nn
The pump can be configured to communicate either with a
computer or another pump. Communications with a computer (Address Mode) is the default setting and will
be indicated by the [Ad:nn] display.
When in the default Address Mode, up to 100 pumps can be attached to a computer in a single pump network.
The network address is defined by the 2 digits to the right of the colon (:). The valid range of addresses is
from ‘00’ to ‘99’. If only one pump is attached to the computer, set the network address to 0, [Ad:00] (factory
default).
After the network address is displayed, the baud rate is displayed. Each pump in the pump network and the
computer must have the same baud rate setting. Any arrow key can be used to scroll through the selection of
baud rates. The supported baud rates are: 300, 1200, 2400, 9600, and 19200 (displayed as [1920]).
To change the communications mode:
With the network address displayed [Ad:nn], press the left-most arrow key to enter the communications mode
menu. Pressing any arrow key will scroll through the menu selections:
Address Mode: Default communications with a computer mode.
Reciprocating Pumps. Sends Start/Stop, Pumping rate and reverse
pumping direction to an attached secondary pump.
Reciprocating Pumps. Sends Start/Stop, Pumping rate and same
pumping direction to an attached secondary pump.
Alternating Pumps. Starts second pump when current pumping
program stops. Modified by TTL RUN.1 and OUT.0 setting.
Note: Communications with a computer requires the accessory cable: CBL-PC-PUMP-7.
Dual pump modes requires the accessory cable: CBL-DUAL-3
In Reciprocating or Dual Pumps Modes, the secondary pump must be left in its default communications setting
of Address Mode, Address 0, and 19,200 baud rate. See the documentation with CBL-DUAL-3 cable for more
detailed information.
8. Pumping Program
A Pumping Program is simply a pre-defined sequence of actions, or functions, which guarantees consistent and
precise operation of the pump, automatically, and with or without any user intervention. A Pumping Program
can be as simple as continuous pumping at a fixed infusion rate. Or a Pumping Programs could consist of a
pumping rate and direction of pumping for a specified volume, then switch to another pumping rate. Also a
Program can interact with external devices through the TTL I/O connector, make decisions, or stop pumping
for a period of time.
Programs are broken into individual operations called Phases. Each Phase consists of a function that can be a
control function or pumping function. A pumping function, such as ‘RATE’, consists of a pumping rate,
optional “Volume to be Dispensed”, and the pumping direction.
Complex dispensing systems can be designed, involving multiple liquids, each dispensed from a different
pump, plus other equipment and sensors. Pumping Programs can be designed for each pump which enables
multiple pumps to synchronize with each other, and the other equipment and sensors, using a cable connected
to the TTL I/O connectors of each pump.
When the Pumping Program is started, either from the keypad, TTL I/O connector, or from RS-232, the
Pumping Program will begin with Phase 1 of the Program. After the completion of each Phase, the pump will
