CRYOGENICS Introduction HELIX TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Front Panel Component Description Keypad/Display Control Description The On-Board keypad/display, shown in Figure 1-4, provides a user interface to the Network Terminal for programming and operating all On- Board Pump functions. Figure 1-4 shows the location of all function keys and the alphanumeric display. -
Page 13: Clear Display Key
The function keys allow the user to select the software function in which programming or operation is desired. Service RS-232 Port The Service RS-232 port allows you, or a CTI-CRYOGENICS Field Service Representative, to connect the RS-232 port of a portable computer to the Network Terminal for communication purposes. The port is mounted on the front panel for easy access and supports baud rates of 2400, 9600, and 19200. -

Page 23: Roughing Maps
CRYOGENICS Operation HELIX TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Roughing Maps For multi-pump systems that share a roughing pump through a roughing manifold, it is necessary to map the Cryopumps as shown in Figure 4-2. A roughing map keeps track of which pumps are on which roughing manifold. -
Page 24: Rough Valve Map Example Procedure
CRYOGENICS Network Terminal Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Instructions HELIX TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Rough Valve Map Example Procedure Use the following procedure to create a rough valve map as shown in Figure 4-2. NOTE: A minimum of 2 pumps per map is required. 1. -
Page 25: Establishing Roughing Maps And Password Protection
CRYOGENICS Operation HELIX TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Once a Cryopump which is contained within a roughing map has started FastRegen, no other Cryopump in that map can start a FastRegen until that pump reaches 115K in cooldown. Full regenerations can be started individually or in groups at any time. -
