Dionex Pumps
Controlling Pumps without a Separate Device Driver

In addition to the device drivers for  Dionex Pumps, Chromeleon provides many drivers for controlling third-party pumps. For an overview of the different manufacturers whose devices can be controlled by Chromeleon, refer to Hardware Installation  Installing and Controlling Third-Party Devices in the Administrator Help section.

Besides, pumps can be controlled for which separate device drivers or serial interfaces are not available (for example, the former Gynkotek M300 pump). Depending on the type of pump to be controlled, the following plug-in boards are available:

1. "Dionex Pump DA Converter (12 Bit)" (for voltage-controlled pumps) or

2. "Dionex Pump Control Card" (for frequency-controlled pumps).

The Administrator Help section provides more information; refer to Hardware Installation:

 Installing the Pump Control Card

In addition, install the respective device driver, for example, DAC Pumps (for voltage-controlled pumps) or Pump Control Board Pump(s) (for frequency-controlled pumps). (For more information, refer to  Adding, Configuring, or Deleting Devices in the Administrator Help section.)

Chromeleon supports the following commands for voltage-controlled pumps (DAC pumps):

In addition, a reset can be performed for frequency-controlled pumps, which are installed via the Pump Control Board Pump(s) device driver.
