Cable(s) to Controlled Device(s)
An electrical cable for each controlled device extends from the rear panel and
connects to the device. The Dionex RFC-10 includes only the suppressor
(AES/SRS) cable. The Dionex RFC-30 (pictured) includes cables for a
suppressor (AES/SRS), an eluent generator (EG-1), and a CR-TC.
Operation/Download Button
When the
Download
position (in) is selected, new Moduleware can be
downloaded to the Dionex RFC (see Section 6.1). The
Operation
position (out)
must be used for all other functions.
RS-232 Port
This port is used when downloading new Moduleware to the Dionex RFC (see
Section 6.1).
TTL Control/AC Control Button
When the
TTL Control
position (out) is selected, the
Pump
TTL input connector
is enabled. When the
AC Control
position (in) is selected, the Dionex RFC
bypasses the
Pump
TTL input. AC control can be used with a DX-120 system.
Contact Thermo Fisher Scientific for details.
TTL Control Input Connectors
The
Pump
input connects to a TTL output on the pump or to a DX-120 adapter
cable. The pump or DX-120 then signals the Dionex RFC when the pump flow is
on. The
Gradient
connector is used only with Dionex RFC-30 eluent generator
Main Power Switch
Provides on/off control of
the Dionex RFC.
Main Power Receptacle
and Fuse Holder
The Dionex RFC power
cord connects here. Two
fuses are located in the
holder under the receptacle.
See Section 6.3 for how to
change fuses.
