Controlled via RS-232 (ASCII) or (Binary) Modes
In these remote-control modes, a non-Waters data system (a mass spectrometry system,
for example) controls the Separations Module using RS-232 ASCII or binary
communications. The Separations Module disconnects from the IEEE-488 interface bus
when either of these modes is selected. The Separations Module can control other
non-IEEE devices in the HPLC system using the I/O connections on the rear panel.
To set the Separations Module to the Controlled via RS-232 (ASCII) or (Binary) mode:
1. Select the
System
field in the Configuration screen, then press
Enter
to display a
list of choices.

Exit.
The Separations Module is ready to be controlled by a remote data
system using RS-232 communications.
