nCA - Clear LCD display
nCH - Home the cursor
nDO xxxxxxxxxx<,yyyyy>
Set and run one dose of xxxxxxxxxx
tacho pulses, with optional drip of yyyyy
(maximum 11,000) tacho pulses. See
note 1
nTC - Clear the cumulative tachometer count
nSP xxx.x Set speed to xxx.x rpm
nSI - Increment speed by 1rpm
nSD - Decrement speed by 1rpm
nGO - Start running
nST - Stop running
nRC - Change direction
nRR - Set direction to clockwise
nRL - Set direction to counter-clockwise
nRS - Return status. See note 2
nRT - Return the cumulative tachometer count
nW
[line 1]~[line 2]~
[line 3]~[line 4]@
Display text on 1 to 4 lines with ~ as
the line delimiter. Terminated by the @
character. See note 3
nZY - Return 0 for stopped or 1 for running
Note 1: The correlation between tachometer pulses and motor rotation is fixed
and provides a measurable and absolute way of monitoring the number of rev-
olutions of the gearbox output shaft - 10,982 pulses per revolution. This in turn
allows the count to be equated to the amount of material dispensed - assuming
that the pumphead type and tube size are known.
Note 2: The status is returned to the sender in the following format: [pump
type] [ml/rev] [pumphead] [tube size] [speed] [CW/CCW] P/N [pump number]
[tacho count] [0/1 (stopped/running)] !
For example: 520Du 15.84 520R 9.6MM 220.0 CW P/N 1 123456789 1 !
Note 3: If the pump speed is changed subsequently, the pump must display the
screen shown here (example figures only) for 4 seconds before reverting to the
custom display. 1 to 4 lines of text can be written with ~
as the line delimiter and @ as the message end.
i.e., 1W520Du@ and 1W520Du~@ are both valid commands.
Note 4: In all cases 'n' can be any number from 1 to 32 inclusive, and by excep-
tion the # symbol can be used as an all-drives command; but not with the RS,
RT or ZY commands, as the results would be indeterminate.
