The Display
The Autosampler CE has a 32-character liquid
crystal display (see Figure 1.11). The screen
displays a blinking cursor whenever user input is
requested. The Autosampler CE's display is
independent of the DSC instrument display (refer
to the DSC Operator's Manual for details on
the instrument display).

The GPIB
The GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus) is a
two-way communications network consisting of
the controller and the DSC instrument. Through
the GPIB, the controller sends commands to
control the instrument and Autosampler CE; then
the instrument and Autosampler CE reply with
data and status messages.
