Installing the Preparative Pump
The CAN bus is a serial bus with high-speed data transfer. The two connectors for the CAN 
bus are used for internal Agilent 1200 Series module data transfer and synchronization.
The REMOTE connector may be used in combination with other analytical instruments from 
Agilent Technologies if you want to use features such as common shut down, prepare, and 
so on.
The RS-232 connector may be used to control the preparative pump from a computer 
through an RS-232 connection, using appropriate software. This connector needs to be 
activated by the 8-bit configuration switch module in the upper right corner of the rear of 
the pump. The software needs the appropriate drivers to support this communication. See 
your software documentation for further information.
The power input socket accepts a line voltage of 100 – 240 Volts AC ± 10 % with a line 
frequency of 50 - 60 Hz. max. power consumption is 250 VA (Volt-Amps). There is no 
voltage selector on your preparative pump because the power supply has wide-ranging 
capability. There are no externally accessible fuses. The security lever at the power input 
socket prevents that the preparative pump cover is taken OFF when line power is still 
connected.
The interface (BCD) board slot is used for external contacts, BCD output and for LAN 
communication.
The CAN-DC-out provides 24 Volts DC power for external CAN devices like a switch valve. 
Max. permanent power consumption is 100 mA/channel or 2 A for 2 sec.
