Operation
Opto-I/O is electrically isolated from the other components of the system. This is an
important safety feature for preventing overloads.
The three 26-pin connectors are Ports A, B and C. Port A is the default port during normal
operation and does not need to be connected to any device if it is the only active port.
Ports B and C can be activated as accessories are added. The cables are attached as
needed.
To reset Port assignment to Port A, or to use Ports B or C, enter an ACL command in
Fluidmove to activate that port. ACL commands can be entered in Terminal Mode or
added to the dispensing program.
