Plunger move commands
Move plunger to absolute position (A<n>)
The [A] command moves the plunger to absolute position <n>.
Arguments for C3000/C3000MP:
Arguments for C24000/C24000MP:
For example:
[A300R] moves the syringe plunger to position 300.
[A600R] moves the syringe plunger to position 600.
Move plunger to absolute position, not busy (a<n>)
This is the same as the [A] command, except the status bit within the reply
string, and any subsequent Query [Q] commands, indicates that the pump is
not busy.
Make relative pickup (aspirate) move (P<n>)
The [P] command moves the plunger down the number of increments <n>
commanded. The new absolute position is the previous position plus <n>.
Arguments for C3000/C3000MP:
Arguments for C24000/C24000MP:
For example:
The syringe plunger is at position 0. The command [P300] moves the
plunger down 300 increments. A subsequent [P600] command moves the
plunger down 600 additional increments to an absolute position of 900.
The [P] command will return an invalid operand error (error 3) if the final
plunger position is greater than 3000 (24000 in N1 or N2 mode) for the
C3000/C3000MP.
Make relative pickup (aspirate) move, not busy (p<n>)
This is the same as the [P] command, except that the status bit of the reply
string, and any subsequent query [Q] commands, indicate that the pump is
not busy.
