Page 8 Operating Instructions
2.4.1 Analog Connectors
In addition to the analog input, each analog connector ( → Fig. 2; no. 1) provides a digital
input ( → section 2.4.2) and a digital output ( → section 2.4.3). For information and tips
about the pin assignment, see page 49.
The UCI-100 has eight analog inputs; the UCI-50 provides analog inputs on Ch.1 and Ch. 2.
2.4.2 Digital Inputs
The digital inputs are distributed among the analog connectors ( → Fig. 2; no. 1), but are
also grouped in one separate connector ( → Fig. 2; no. 2).
The digital inputs allow the time-resolved acquisition of binary events. In this way, they
can be used to inform Chromeleon about external events, such as the injection of a sample.
TTL signal levels are processed.
For information and tips about the pin assignment, see page 50.
2.4.3 Digital Outputs
The digital inputs are distributed among the analog connectors ( → page Fig. 2, no. 1). The
relay outputs allow potential-free switching of external signals, and thus they can be used
transmit control signals to other devices. As these outputs are potential-free relay contacts,
they do not depend on specific signal levels. However, the maximum capacity of the
contacts has to be considered ( → Technical Information, page 45).
2.4.4 USB and LAN Ports
Data transmission between the UCI and Chromeleon is by using the integrated USB
interface or LAN interface and the appropriate connection cable from the accessories kit
( → page 47). To ensure trouble-free operation, use only the cables described in section 7
( → page 47).
For information about how to connect the UCI to the Chromeleon server OC by using a
USB connection, see page 13. For information about using a LAN connection, see page 15.
