Installation and Getting Started

2.3.3 COMMUNICATION Connector

Connect the COMMUNICATION port to a free COM port on the computer using
the Solvent Organizer Com cable (item c, FIGURE 2-2).

2.3.4 INPUTS Connector

CHROMELEON controls the valve positions via the COMMUNICATION port
(Section 2.3.3). Refer to Sections 2.4 and 2.5 if the valves need to be controlled
by digital input signals (e.g. the instrument is to be installed in conjunction with a
software package which does not support the serial communication).
2.3.5 Triggering a Mass Spectrometer (or an Other Device)
If you want to provide a mass spectrometer (or other external device) with a
trigger signal from the CHROMELEON software at some event (e.g. on the
beginning of the gradient program), connect the appropriate input of the mass
spectrometer (or other device) to the EVENT 8 output (relay contact) of the
UltiMate Micropump as shown in FIGURE 2-3.

2.3.6 Power Connector

Since the Switchos is fitted with a universal power supply for input voltages
from 90 to 260 V, manual setting of the supply voltage is not required. The
power cord should be inserted in the socket directly below the Main Power
switch on the right side of the rear panel (FIGURE 2-1). In addition, the loading
pump should be plugged into the socket above the Main Power switch.
Danger: The Switchos must be connected to a power source that is connected to
DANGER
a true ground.
