Interface And Outputs - IKA KS 4000 i control Mode D'emploi

Interface and outputs

Configuration
The unit can be controlled from an external PC (using the dedi-
cated software labworldsoft) via the RS 232 C serial interface
fitted to the unit.
To increase safety when controlling the shaking unit from
a PC, enable the watchdog function for monitoring the
continuous serial data flow (see section watchdog func-
tion)
• The functions of the inteface lines between laboratory in-
strument and automation system are selected from the
specfied signals of the EIA-standard RS 232 C, corresponding
with DIN 66020 Part 1. The allotment of the bushing can be
taken from illustration.
• For the electrical properties of the interface lines and for the
allotment of the signal status, standard RS 232 C, corres-
ponding with DIN 66259 Part 1 applies

Instruction syntax
Here applies the following:
• The instructionsare generally sent from the processor

(master) to the laboratory instrument (slave).
• The laboratory instrument exclusively sends on demand of
the processor. Even error codes cannot be spontaneously
communicated from the laboratory instrument to the proces-
sor (automatic system)
•Instructions and parameters as well as subsequent para-
meters are separated by at least o n e blank.
• Each individual instruction including parameters and data as
well as each reply are terminated with CR LF (Code: hex
0x0D and 0x0A) and have a maximum lenght of 80 charac-
ters.
• The decimal separator in a floating point number is the point.
(Code: hex 0x2E)
The above statements largely correspond with the recommen-
dations of the NAMUR-Assocation (NAMUR-recommendati-
ons for the design of electric plug connections for the analog
and digital signal transmission to labortory - MSR individual
units. Rev. 1.1).
