Jet Setting from the Front Panel (Continued) Refill (msec): Refill time is the time required for the material to flow into the nozzle after each drop is ejected. Refill is set in msec with 0.1 msec resolution. Section 6.1 - Timing Recipe Parameters provides a detailed explanation of Refill Time.
Special Front Panel Key Sequences Pressing a combination of front panel keys accesses additional settings. Refill++ time: Simultaneously pressing the LEFT and RIGHT keys once brings up the Refill++ time menu. As another method of first drop compensation, Refill++ time is added to Refill time after the jet is idled for a defined number of seconds.
4. RS-232 Communication RS-232 Connector Pins On some HV-2000C models there is a serial port DB9P female connector located on the front panel. This RS-232 port is used to connect the controller to a PC using a USB-to-Serial Adapter cable. Connect the USB Plug end to the PC’s USB port, and connect the Serial DB9 plug to the RS-232 port.
Changing the Default RS-232 Settings The default settings for the RS-232 data interface are CTS ON, Baud Rate 57600, Parity NONE, and Data Length 8BIT. To change the default RS-232 settings, simultaneously press the LEFT and RIGHT keys twice. (Pressing L+R one time displays the Refill++ settings;...
5. Advanjet Software The Advanjet software is not required if the controller will always be operated from the front panel keys. However, if a PC user interface is preferred, or if access to the controller front panel keys is limited, the Advanjet Software provides the option of programming the jetting parameters from a PC using Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.
Settings Menu This section describes features 1 – 11 of the Advanjet Software Settings Menu as shown in Figure 5-1 on the previous page. Valve Status: Turn the Jet valve ON or OFF by clicking on the large indicator button (RED = ON, BLUE = OFF). The Jet valve is ON by default at startup. When the button is RED, the Jet valve is activated and it will block the fluid flow.

Running a Program from Software Before running a program for the first time, make sure to check the following: Connect all electrical cables to the HV-2000. This includes the jet cable, the I/O cable if remote triggering is used, the RS-232 cable when running from the computer, and the power cable.
6. Timing Recipes Before dispensing can begin, Timing Recipes must be created for the particular fluids being dispensed. Figure 6-1 on the next page shows the Timing Recipes Menu of the Advanjet software. Once configured, the Timing Recipes can be downloaded into the Advanjet controller.
Programming Timing Recipes TIMING RECIPES LIST (1 – 12) REFILL TIME DWELL TIME REFILL+ TIME (FOR FIRST DROP) Figure 6-1: Timing Recipes Main Menu The Advanjet software offers several sample Timing Recipes for popular fluids for a quick start-up. As shown in Figure 6-1 above, the Timing Recipes main menu screen lists the dispensing parameters on the HV-2000C controller front panel.

Programming Timing Recipes (Continued) Refill Time: Sets the time required for the material to flow into the orifice after each drop has been ejected. Time is set in msec with 0.1 msec resolution. Reserved 2 to Reserved 5: These timers are not used for the HV-2000. They are set to zero by default.
DROP Mode Programming Programming the Advanjet system is very simple and flexible, as shown in the following examples. Dispensing one drop at a time On the Settings Menu (see Section 5.2), select the pull-down menu to set the timing recipe for ―Recipe #1‖ Set the Count entry to 1 for ―Recipe #1‖...
LINE Mode Programming The Advanjet software and HV-2000C controller make dispensing lines very simple. The following examples illustrate how this is done. Method 1: Jetting a line in PULSE mode Click on the Timing Recipes tab, select a Recipe # and enter a Refill time of 2 msec and Dwell time of 3 msec.
LINE Mode Programming (Continued) Method 3: Jetting a line during an X-Y move There is another method to dispense a line if the Robot has the capability to issue triggers during an X-Y move. The Robot will make an X-Y move and send pulses of trigger to the controller at the position where it wants to jet a drop.
7. Advanjet Controller Commands (ACC) The ACC is a simple set of commands for controlling the Jet, timing values, and settings for the recipes. A host computer or external robot is connected to the Advanjet controller via an RS-232 cable. The host/robot sends ACC to the controller in ASCII format. This section serves as a reference for using ACC to write a custom program for the Advanjet Controller.

Appendix 1: First Drop Compensation Appendix 1-1: Background Many viscous fluids are thixotropic and their viscosity decreases with motion. This is often referred to as shear thinning. When dispensing a thixotropic fluid, the very first drop ejected is often smaller than subsequent drops if the jet has been idle for some time.
Appendix 1-3: First Drop Compensation in PULSE Mode In this mode, the controller produces ―n‖ drops when it receives a trigger signal, where ―n‖ is the number of drops. Refill Time for the first dot = Refill + T ...
