Teledyne Foxy 200 1 Teledyne Foxy 200 Control Module 1 Teledyne Foxy 200 Control Module This manual describes the setting of the Teledyne Foxy 200 fraction collector. The control module enables direct control of the instrument over serial line. Fig 1: Teledyne Foxy 200 fraction collector Direct control means that the fraction collector can be completely controlled from the Clarity environment. -

Teledyne Foxy 200 2 Requirements 2 Requirements Free serial COM port in the PC. Note: Modern computers usually have only one (if any) serial (COM) port installed. To use more devices requiring the RS232 port, the MultiCOM adapter (p/n MC01) is available. -
Page 7: Installation Procedure
3 Installation Procedure 3 Installation Procedure 3.1 Teledyne Foxy 200 fraction collector communication The Teledyne Foxy 200 is controlled by serial (RS232) communication. It uses a serial DB9F-DB25M straight cable (p/n SK12) described in the picture below. Fig 2: Serial DB9F-DB25M cable On top of that, the fraction collector must be switched to the same Baud Rate as set in Clarity and the ID=5 to work with the control module. -

The reaction to the fulfilled start/stop signal condition will be delayed the higher the Filter value is set, mainly on detectors with low data rate.

Page 16: Method Setup - Fc - Vial Numbers
Open Instrument - the vial number is reset only once, when the Instrument is opened. Last Vial Number Vial Number Sets the number of the last available vial. The Teledyne Foxy 200 fraction collector can set the tray used in the DataApex UNI Setup dialog, so the value range of this field is limited. - Page 17 4 Using the control module Clarity Controls After Last Vial Specifies the action executed when current vial number exceeds the Last Vial Number. Waste - the acquisition continues, but the fraction table is ignored and the samples are automatically discarded. Shutdown - the acquisition is immediately stopped and the analysis aborted.

Note: Instead of COM1, type the communication port used to communicate with the Teledyne Foxy 200 fraction collector. This port number is displayed when the FC Status button in the Method Setup - FC dialog is invoked. Note: %D (or %d) in the filename parameter means that the log will be created separately for each day.
