5 In a fail condion, vent valve fully opens immediately. If a stop com-
mand is received, controlled venng from 100% to 50% full rotaonal
speed and then vent valve opens fully below 50%.
6 Vent valve fully opens immediately for either a stop command or a fail
condion.

This is the factory default seng for Valve 1 type and Valve 2 type.
When the pump is shipped, the controller is congured with the factory default Vent
opon 1 set to 0 and the Valve 1 type set to 0, as detailed in Table: Vent valve opons
and Table: Valve types. The controller can be congured to one of the other venng
opons provided commands can be sent via the serial interface, an Edwards TIC Turbo
and Instrument Controller, TIC Turbo Controller, or the Edwards nST2 PC soware can be
used via the USB serial port.
If the valve type is set to normally open, the controller only energises or shuts the TAV
solenoid valve when it receives a start command. Prior to that, the valve will be in the
‘open’ vent state. If the vacuum system is a large system, allow the backing pump to
reduce the pressure in the system to an acceptable level before starng the nEXT pump.
In this case, send a command via the serial interface to close the vent valve before
sending a start command – this is known as a delayed start.
If the valve type is set to normally closed and either vent opons 14 or 15 are used, the
controller will ensure that the TAV solenoid valve will only ‘open’ upon receipt of a stop
command. Therefore there is no need to send the delayed start command.
