Making Ieee-488 Connections With External Powerline Devices - Waters 600E Installation And Maintenance Manual

3.3.2 Making IEEE-488 Connections with External PowerLine Devices

When controlling external PowerLine devices from the 600E pump, use the IEEE-488
interface to communicate with the PowerLine devices (where the PowerLine Controller is
the controller on the IEEE-488 interface). Set up the 600 as a PowerLine Controller.
Note: To set up the 600 controller as a PowerLine Controller, refer to the Waters 600E
Multisolvent Delivery System User's Guide, Section 4.1, Setting Up the 600 as a
PowerLine Controller.
Supported PowerLine devices include:
• Waters autosamplers (717plus, 717, 715)
• Waters detectors (486, 490E, 410, 432)
Note: In the PowerLine mode, the 600 PowerLine Controller supports operation with a
Waters 431 conductivity detector through an interface box. For details, see the "Attaching
a Waters 431 Detector to a PowerLine System"
PowerLine System" on page
When operating with the Waters 432 conductivity detector, the 600 PowerLine Controller
supports operation directly over the IEEE-488 interface as described in this procedure.
To connect IEEE-488 cables:
1. Connect the single-receptacle end of the IEEE-488 cable (supplied with either the
600E system or the data system) to the IEEE-488 connector on the 600 controller
rear panel
2. Connect the other end of the cable ("stackable" connector for daisy-chaining
additional instruments) to the IEEE-488 connector on the next PowerLine
instrument.
3. If using a multicomponent configuration (as illustrated in
second IEEE-488 cable to the "stackable" connector on the PowerLine instrument.
Connect the other end of the cable to the IEEE-488 port on the next PowerLine
component.
