The above details correspond as far as possible to the recommendations of the NAMUR work-
ing party (NAMUR recommendations for the design of electrical plug connections for analogue
and digital signal transmission on individual items of laboratory control equipment, rev� 1�1)�
The NAMUR commands and the additional specific IKA commands commissioning serve only
as low level commands for communication between the device and the PC� With a suitable ter-
minal or communications program these commands can be transmitted directly to the device�
The IKA software package, Labworldsoft
®
, provides a convenient tool for controlling device
and collecting data under MS Windows, and includes graphical entry features, for motor speed
ramps for example�
NAMUR Commands Function
IN_NAME Read the device name
IN_PV_1 Read actual external sensor value
IN_PV_2 Read actual hotplate sensor value
IN_PV_4 Read stirring speed value
IN_PV_5 Read viscosity trend value
IN_SP_1 Read rated temperature value
IN_SP_3 Read rate set safety temperature value
IN_SP_4 Read rate speed value
OUT_SP_1_x
(x=0���310) Adjust the set temperature value
OUT_SP_4_x
(x=0���1500) Adjust the set speed value
START_1 Start the heater
STOP_1 Stop the heater
START_4 Start the motor
STOP_4 Stop the motor
RESET Switch to normal operating mode
SET_MODE_n
(n=A, B, or D) Set operating mode
OUT_SP_12@n Setting WD safety limit temperature with set value echo
OUT_SP_42@n Setting WD safety limit speed with set value echo
OUT_WD1@m Watchdog mode 1: if event WD1 should occur, the heating and stirring
functions are switched off and Er02 is displayed� Set watchdog time to m
(20 - 1,500) seconds, with watchdog time echo� This command launches the
watchdog function and must be transmitted within the set watchdog time�
OUT_WD2@m Watchdog mode 2: if event WD2 should occur, the speed target value is
changed to the WD safety speed limit and the temperature target value is
changed to the WD safety temperature limit value� The warning WD is dis-
played� The WD2 event can be reset with OUT_WD2@0 - this also stops
the watchdog function� Set watchdog time to m (20 - 1,500) seconds, with
watchdog time echo� This command launches the watchdog function and
must be transmitted within the set watchdog time�
