Settings for Scenarios will not be reset back to the factory settings. That is only possible with the options “Scenario” and “Reset ALL” after entering the service code 1000 (s. chapter 4.1.5.7). VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Product Description...
• In the submenu “Scenario” you can enter values for pre-defined scenarios. Here you can also set the option to work with these scenarios. • The submenu “Service-Option” is used to enter service codes and to change the baud rate. VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Product Description...
In “Tappet” and “Nozzle” you can see the current values as well as the respective reference value. If a heater is used, instead of “Ready” the current temperature is displayed. VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Product Description...

Since F-valves differ from A-valves, those chapters only relevant for F-valves are marked with an “(F)” in the title. Smaller sections are marked with an F-icon (see 2.2.3). VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Product Description...
Comprehensive Material Selection Only the best materials are used for the production of Vermes Microdispensing valves. • All parts in contact with the transported medium consist of high-alloy special steel, rust- and acid-resisting, or modifications of high-duty polymers of the PE, PEEK and PTFE fami- •...
INITIAL OPERATION Delivery VERMES systems are shipped in carefully packed state. Transport damages however can never be totally excluded, and deadlines stated in insurance contracts should not be ex- ceeded. 5.1.1 Unpacking For this reason, the merchandise has to be visually inspected immediately after receipt.
− Slide the cartridge holder onto the side of the MDV, the magnets must face towards the valve. Depending on the size of the cartridge, you might have to add an insert into the cartridge holder (see pictures next page). VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Initial Operation...
For high-duty applications (from ca. 300 Hz) or in the case of an air-cooled model (AC vari- ants), a rack with separate ventilation is advisable, since in these situations an airflow of 30 m /h for each MDC 3200 is compulsory. VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Initial Operation...
IMPORTANT NOTE! (Connecting cables) Verify during the connecting procedure that the red points on the plugs point towards each other. VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Initial Operation...
Then pull both connectors apart without losing the grip and they will separate. Do not pull at the cables! Grip here! VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Initial Operation...
If the valve is not connected, an error message (“VALVE NOT PRESENT“) appears on the screen. Switch OFF the system, disconnect it from the mains and complete the installation before continuing. VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Initial Operation...
The completely open and closed positions of the MNL screw are marked by a slightly higher resistance. This step is only necessary for F-valves, since other valves do not have an MNL screw. Never perform the adjust with a closed MNL screw. VTK-VS-BA-015e-A | User Manual MDS 3200+ Series | Initial Operation...
