Monitoring the DX-120 Operating Status
You can monitor the status of many DX-120 operating functions on the control panel. For example, the control panel can include controls displaying the current DS4 temperature set point and status, the current flow rate, and the SRS status.
To add the corresponding controls to the control panel and link the desired status functions, follow the description in How to: Controlling Devices from the Control Panel:
Modifying a Control Panel

Linking a Control to a Device
The following DX-120 functions can be monitored on the control panel.
|
DX-120 Function |
Description |
|
Column Configuration |
Indicates whether the DX-120 is configured with a single- or dual-column set. |
|
DS4 Status |
Indicates whether the current DS4 temperature is under, at (ready), or over the temperature set point. |
|
DS4 Temperature |
Displays the current DS4 temperature set point. |
|
Flow Rate |
Displays the pump flow rate. |
|
Full Scale |
Indicates the microSiemens output (100 or 1000) of a full-scale detector response. |
|
Pressure |
Displays the current pump pressure transducer reading. |
|
SRS Status |
Indicates the status of the SRS, not installed, off, or the selected operating current (if on). |
|
System Mode |
Indicates whether the DX-120 is in Column Mode or Eluent Mode. Refer to |
Tips:
The Chromeleon reports the status of the above DX-120 functions only. Except for the system mode, values for these functions are selected with DIP-switches on the DX-120. Refer to the DX-120 operator’s manual for more information. The system mode is selected in the DX-120 Properties dialog box (Mode tab page) in the Server Configuration.
For functions that can be controlled by Chromeleon, refer to Controlling a DX-120 Ion Chromatograph.
