Chapter 2 ________________________________________________________________________ 2.1 Preliminary 2.1.1 Environment and Handling The Type 1309 Multipoint Sampler is designed for use in environments with temperatures between +5°C and +40°C (+41°F and +104°F) and with up to 90% relative humidity (non-condensing) at 40°C. Make sure to leave some space between the Rear Panel and the Wall, or other obstacles, to ensure easy access to the mains supply. No other special handling precautions are necessary. 2.1.
Chapter 2 ________________________________________________________________________ Again using the screwdriver, gently lever the fuse-holders out from their slots. See Fig. 2.2. Fig.2.2. Inserting the fuses into the 1309’s fuse holder Use two 1.6A slow-blow fuses (LumaSense No. VF0007), they are supplied with the instrument. When replacing the fuse-holders, ensure that the direction of the white arrows on each holder matches the arrows marked on the covering flap. 2.
Chapter 2 ________________________________________________________________________ 2.3 System Use The 1309 combined with a Gas Monitor and a controlling computer provides a system that offers wide-ranging monitoring capabilities. The 1309 makes it possible to perform multipoint monitoring tasks in many different situations and environments, without changing the system components. An example of a multipoint, multi-gas monitoring system is shown in fig. 2.3.
Chapter 2 ________________________________________________________________________ 2.3.1 Setting the Interface Address of the 1309 The 1309 uses a single interface address. The address is set using the bank of eight DIP switches on the rear panel of the 1309. The last five switches on the bank decide the interface address. These switches are marked A1 (the least significant bit) to A5 (the most significant bit).
Chapter 2 ________________________________________________________________________ Fig. 2.5. Dipswitch settings binary “0” If the switch is up, it represents a binary “1”. See Fig. 2.6. Fig. 2.6 Dipswitch settings binary “1” The default interface address of the 1309 is set to 01111 (decimal value 15), see Fig. 2.7. If this is not suitable for your system, use the switches to set an address appropriate to your system.

See section 2.4.3 for details of how to fit a water-trap filter. 2.4.1 Connecting Sampling Tubing Before connecting sampling tubing to the 1309, determine approximately where the sampling points will be in the area to be monitored.
Chapter 2 ________________________________________________________________________ 2.4.2 Connecting External Filters to the Sampling Tubes The external filters, comprising filter, LumaSense accessory number DS2306, and fitting, LumaSense accessory number UD5041 (optional accessories), protect the 1309’s sampling airways from airborne particles such as dust, thus helping to prevent blockage of the airways. The filter unit is attached to the tubing as follows (see Fig.2.9): Fig.2.
Chapter 2 ________________________________________________________________________ Note: some gases may be absorbed by the water trapped in the filter. This will reduce the gases’ concentrations. To connect sampling tubing to the water-trap filter Push the sampling tubing into the connector as far as it will go and tighten the nut.

Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ All tasks performed by the 1309 are controlled over the IEEE/IEC interface from a System Controller; there is no other control possibility. This chapter deals with the control of the 1309 from the user’s point of view; for details of the IEEE/IEC interface specifications, refer to Chapter 4 of this manual. Sections 3.1 and 3.2 deal with switching-on and the general principles of controlling the 1309. Sections 3.3 to 3.
Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ Fig.3.1. General syntax diagram for interface jobs Job Headers The job header specifies the function you want the 1309 to perform. It consists of one or more words. The ASCII underline character “_” is used to separate individual words in the job header. For example: OPEN_SAMPLING_VALVE A hyphen “-“ or a full stop”.” can also be used to separate words in the job header.
Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ Numerical data for interface jobs sent to the 1309 can be in NR1, NR2 or NR3 form. This is a format for describing how the numerical data is represented, for example: NR1 data: 250 (number without decimal fraction or exponent) NR2 data: 249.85 (number with decimal fraction, without exponent) NR3 data: 2.499E-2 (number with fraction and exponent).

Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ 3.7 Error Conditions and Service Requests If an error arises in the 1309’s hardware, processor system or software, the 1309 can signal the system controller by generating a Service Request. The exact nature of the error condition can then be investigated by using the Warning? or Error? interface jobs. 3.7.
Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ 3.7.2 Enabling Service Requests The specified bits in the status byte are enabled using the interface job Service_Request_Enable. The required bits are specified by using the decimal equivalent of their binary value, as shown in Table 3.3. See also the job examples below for further clarification.
Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ 3.7.4 The Warning? Interface Job This job reads-out an 8-bit byte (the Warning Flags) which gives information about error conditions which affect the efficient operation of the 1309. The 1309 is still able to operate, but the error should be rectified as soon as possible. The Warning Flag byte is shown in Table 3.4. Table 3.4 The 1309’s Warning Flags byte Bit no. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 WARNING FLAGS Dec.
Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ Power Fail Flag Is set if the power is outside the range 13.25V to 15.75V. This flag is reset when the voltage is back within the above range, or by resetting the 1309, or switching the 1309 off and then on. If the error is persistent, have the 1309 serviced. 3.7.5 The Error? Interface Job This job reads-out an 8-bit byte (the Error Flags) which gives information about errors which cause the 1309 to stop working.
Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________________ RAM Flag Indicates that the RAM (random access memory) of the 1309, which stores the 1309’s set-up data, has been corrupted. The flag is reset by switching the 1309 off and then on. If the error persists, have the 1309 serviced. PROM Flag Indicates that the CRC (cyclic redundancy check) for the PROM (programmable read-only memory) has identified incorrect data. The flag is reset by switching the 1309 off and then on.
