Page 5: About This Manual
The fluid makes contact only with the interior of the flexible tubing and thus cannot contaminate or damage the pump. WPI’s MiniStar™ peristaltic pump is easy to maintain and clean. It is compact and lightweight and can conveniently fit into almost any experimental setup. -

Page 7: Instrument Description
Mini-Star™ INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION The Mini-Star is a compact pump that can be used as a standalone device or mounted on a post. The pump is powered by a 12 V DC adapter that is connected to a jack on the rear panel. The pump can be controlled either with a handheld remote or with an analog signal from a computer. - Page 8 Analog Control (Optional) The analog input control provides precise control over the pump without using the technically advanced RS485 communication. WPI offers an external control module supporting analog signals of 0~5V. The pin connections in the module are enumerated below.
- Page 9 DB15 plug. The communication protocol for the pump is given in the Appendix (see page 6). Users proficient in creating software applications (with LabView, C++ or similar tools) may wish to write their own control programs, but WPI does not provide support for this activity.
