Smartline Manager 5000 Interface Module on the PC (RS-232)
In order to connect the interface module with a PC, a standard zero
modem cable is required and is included in the Smartline Manager 5000
Interface Module’s accessory kit. The configuration of the interface are
specified under “RS-232 Interface”.
Analog Inputs
In order to connect the analog output of the respective instrument (e.g.
the integrator output of a detector) with the analog input of the interface
module, use the Cinch cable that is made by the instrument’s
manufacturer and delivered with the instrument. Alternatively, a suitable
cable can be found in the Smartline Manager 5000 Interface Module’s
accessory kit. Please pay attention to the maximal voltage. If it is
exceeded, the instrument can be damaged.
The analog input and output of one channel can not be used
simultaneously.
Analog Outputs
The analog outputs must be connected with the respective control input
of the instrument to be controlled. Information regarding the control input
of the instrument can be found in the respective instrument’s manual.
Please pay attention to the maximal voltage and current of the in and
outputs on the interface module and on the instruments that will be
controlled. If the maximum voltage and current are exceeded, KNAUER
is not liable for defective instruments!
The WAGO plug strips and cable that are required for connection are
included in the Smartline Manager 5000 Interface Module’s accessory kit.
The analog input and output of one channel can not be used
simultaneously.
Digital Connections
The digital inputs can be used to forward a trigger (start) from the
injection unit. The trigger (start) signal must always be connected to the
digital input of the same channel to which the detector for data recording
is connected.
The digital outputs can be programmed over the control software.
The WAGO plug strips and cable that are required for connection are
included in the Smartline Manager 5000 Interface Module’s accessory kit.
If a NO is required, pins 2 and 3 (see back panel view) must be
connected. However, if a NC is required, pins 1 and 2 must be connected
(see back panel view).
If a channel’s analog input is used, the digital output (as well as the
analog output) of this channel can not be programmed. In this case,
a pulse signal is delivered over the digital output DIG.OUT when a
run is started. This can be used as an autozero signal for a detector.
Installation of the WAGO service cable
In order to clamp the cable on the desired positions of the WAGO plug,
please follow the directions below:
