1.1 Scope of this manual
This manual provides operational instructions for the Edwards nXDS pump serial communication protocol. Read this
manual before you attempt to operate your nXDS pump using serial communication protocol.
For safety and operating information for the nXDS range of pumps, please refer to the nXDS Scroll Pump Instruction
Manual (A735-01-880).
1.2 Description
The nXDS pump can be operated in four control modes:
None in Control Mode - Inactive control mode
Manual Control Mode - Active control mode
Parallel Control Mode - Active control mode
Serial Control Mode (including Serial Interlock) - Active control mode
The control mode is determined by the way the nXDS pump is started. All the control modes, and transitions between
them, are defined in Figure 1.
Once started the nXDS pump can only be stopped by the mode in which it was started.
