LIFT
Positioning the lift
• Raises or lowers the lift to a
predefined position. These posi-
tions (work position, rinse position,
shift position, special position) can
be defined in the Configuration
menu as rack-specific.
• An absolute lift position in mm can
also be given.
Numerical entry ('9')
or
Positioning the lift
• The lift can be run to the predefined
positions (work position, rinse
position, shift position, special
position) in a sequence.
• An absolute lift position in mm can
also be given.
PUMP
4
Control pump
• The <PUMP> key is used to
switch the peristaltic pump of the
766 IC Sample Processor on or off.
• The state of the pump is shown in
the second display line in the nor-
mal state. 'PUMP+' means
"switched on", 'PUMP–' means
"switched off").
Numerical entry ('4')
or
Control pump
• The pump can be specifically
switched on and off in a sequence
or set to operate for a fixed amount
of time (in seconds).

SCAN
Display input signals
• Display of the incoming signal or
data on the remote or RS interface.
This function serves to control the
data communication or states of
connected instruments.
• The first parameter represents the
interface selection. The signals for
data being received at that moment
are displayed as the second pa-
rameter.
• If the parallel remote interface (Rm)
is selected, the signal states of the
incoming remote lines are dis-
played in binary form (1 = line
active, 0 = line inactive). Details
see section 5.1.
• If the serial RS232 interface (RS) is
selected, the character string being
received is displayed line by line
(14 characters). Details see section
5.2.
Numerical entry ('1')
or
Scan input signals
• In a sequence the SCAN command
causes method processing to stop
until the predefined bit pattern (with
the remote interface) or the given
character string (with the RS232
interface) is received.
• Predefined bit patterns are
available for the remote interface
and can be selected via simple
short-names (e.g. 'Ready 1' or
'End 2').
• Character strings consisting of 14
ASCII characters may be defined
with the RS232 interface.
