Waters 600 Series gradient controllers provide a Hold signal to stop the next injection.
Connect the Waters 717plus Autosampler to the 600 series pump as follows:
Making Event Output Connections
Connect a signal cable to the Prog Event terminals (pins 11 and 12, pin 13 for ground) on
the 717plus autosampler terminal strip (Figure 2-5
).
2.5.2 Making IEEE-488 Network Connections
The IEEE-488 bus provides a communication link between the Waters 717plus
Autosampler and system controllers such as the Millennium Chromatography Manager,
ExpertEase data systems (through a LAC/E module), and 600 Series system controllers.
Making IEEE-488 Bus Connections
With all instruments powered down, make the following cable connections (Figure 2-6).
1. Connect one end of the IEEE-488 cable to the IEEE connector of the 717plus
Autosampler.
2. Connect the other end of the IEEE-488 cable to a system controller or to any one of
your IEEE-488 components.
Ensure that all IEEE cable screws are fastened securely.
