AUX (Auxiliary Communications) Port
The AUX port provides a standard RS-232 interface connection
from the AS-HV to the optional syringe pump or AXP pump.
The port supports a baud rate of 9600 and operates as
connected DCE (Data Computer Equipment); the pumps
operate as DTE (Data Terminal Equipment). The RS-232 cable
required to connect the pump to the
AUX
port is provided in
the pump Ship Kit.
HOST (Host Communications) Port
The
HOST
port provides a connection from the AS-HV to a
serial port on the Chromeleon PC. The AS-HV Ship Kit
(P/N 064051) includes an RS-232 cable (P/N 060683) for this
connection.
If a serial port is not available on the PC, order the optional
RS-232-to-USB cable (P/N 064261) and use this cable to
connect the autosampler to a USB port on the PC.
Power Entry
The power entry incorporates the AS-HV main power switch and
the fuse compartment.
The AS-HV operates from input voltages over a range of 100 to
240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz power, and requires a grounded, single-
phase power source. The typical input power is 75 W and the
maximum line draw is 1.8 amps at 110 VAC (when the power is
turned on). The appropriate line voltage and frequency are
selected automatically.
SHOCK HAZARD—To avoid electrical shock, use a grounded
receptacle. Do not operate the AS-HV or connect it to AC power mains
without an earthed ground connection.
The power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Make
sure the socket-outlet is located near the AS-HV and is easily
accessible.
