Procedure

  1. Locate the twisted pair of wires (P/N 043598) and the 12-position connector plug (P/N 923686) (see the following figure) provided in the Dionex Inuvion IC System Ship Kit (P/N 064375).

  3. Connect the TTL or relays as follows:
  4. For each relay or TTL, connect an active wire (red) and a ground wire (black) to the 12-position connector plug at the appropriate pin locations. For the connector pin assignments, see TTL and relay connections or the label on the Dionex Inuvion IC System rear panel.
  5. To attach a wire to the plug, strip the end of the wire, insert it into the plug, and use a screwdriver to tighten the locking screw. If necessary, multiple ground wires can be attached to a single TTL input/output ground pin.
  6. IMPORTANT

    When attaching wires to the connector plug, do not allow stray strands of wire to short to the adjoining position on the connector.

  7. Plug the connector into the 12-pin connector on the Dionex Inuvion IC System rear panel.
  8. Connect the wires from the Dionex Inuvion IC System connector plug to the TTL or relay connector pins on the other module(s). Additional connector plugs are provided with other Thermo Scientific modules.
  9. NOTE

    Verify the polarity of each connection. Connect signal wires to signal (+) pins and ground wires to ground (-) pins.

  10. If you connected a peripheral device to a TTL input, confirm that the correct function is assigned to the input and that the correct input control type is selected. Select different settings, if necessary. Input functions and control types are assigned in Chromeleon CDS (see Select TTL input functions and control types).
