Page 6: General Presentation
User Manual 9700 1. General presentation The 9700 processor is an accessory controller that is to be connected to the transducer(s) of the MIVI sensor(s) in order to add numerous functions to the whole system. The purpose of this accessory module is to offer a large amount of displaying items and controlling relays, but also to provide the user with up to 14 current outputs (2 by default) that can be allocated ac- cording to his needs. -

Message “Assigned Sensor Not Found On Com” indicates that the S/N of the viscom- eter that is currently connected to the 9700 on a given position is not the S/N that has been assigned during the sensor scan procedure (§ 3.10). This may happen if the orig- inal viscometer has been disconnected and replaced by a another one that has the same RS slave number. -

It is possible to use up to 9 standard oils but it is usually sufficient to use only 2. Before starting the calibration steps, the MIVI sensor has to be installed on its SOFRASER lab stand at ambient temperature and the 9700 processor has to be powered for at least 30min. Reset the viscosity calibration table (§3.7.3). - Page 35 User Manual 9700 Screen “4.
