If the pump already has a multi-drop address, there will be no reply. Communicate with
the pump in multi-drop message protocol. Refer to Multi-drop operation on page 52 for
more information about multi-drop mode and multi-drop message protocol.
Use the following query (using wild card address 99 which means 'any' node) to find out
the multi-drop address of the nEXT pump:
Multi-drop mode can be disabled by assigning the pump an address 0. To do this, send
the following command (where dd denotes the multi-drop address of the pump and XX
denotes the address of the node that is sending the command):
Once multi-drop mode is disabled, the pump will no longer respond to multi-drop
commands.
6.1.13 Configure the pump using a TIC
The nEXT pump can be configured using the Edwards TIC Turbo and Instrument
Controller or TIC Turbo Controller.
Refer to TIC or TAG logic interface connections on page 70.
It is possible to set the following parameters of the nEXT pump using the TIC:
▪ Power limit setting
▪ Vent options and vent type, including running a fan from the motor controller
▪ Standby speed setting
▪ Normal speed setting
▪ Timer settings - both enabling/disabling the timer AND setting the time‑out period
▪ Electronic braking options
▪ Factory default settings
For information on how to perform these settings, refer to the TIC Turbo and Instrument
Controller or TIC Turbo Controller Instruction Manuals.
Note:
It is not possible to configure the Analogue Output Options using the TIC. There is also no
facility within the TIC to assign a multi‑drop address to the nEXT pump.
