The auxiliary gas module includes the following connections. See
Figure 565. Auxiliary Gas Module Connections

1. Switch marked Primary/Secondary used to set two Auxiliary Gas modules
simultaneously present, one as Primary, and the other as Secondary. The primary module
controls the aux pressures from 1 to 3, while the secondary module controls the aux
pressures from 4 to 6. See also the point 3.
2. 15-pin female connectors marked Bus for the communication with the GC.
3. Three inlets ports marked Gas 1 (4), Gas 2 (5), and Gas 3 (6) for the connection up to
three auxiliary carrier gases. If two modules are present, up to six auxiliary carrier gases
can be connected. See also the point 1.
The auxiliary gas interface is installed and fixed on the left or right wall of the GC oven,
through the ducts provided, for the coupling with a mass spectrometer. See
Note The Auxiliary Gas Interface is fixed on the exterior wall of the GC oven through the
slots provided on the collar duct. Align the slots to the fixing holes accordingly.
