Important Information!

This Operator´s Manual contains important warnings and safety information to be observed by the
user.

This instrument is only intended for one area of application which is described in the instruc-
tions. The most important prerequisites for application, operation and safety, are explained to
ensure smooth operation. No warranty or liability claims will be covered if the instrument is
applied in areas other than those described or if the necessary prerequisites and safety
measures are not observed.

The instrument is only to be operated by qualified personnel capable of observing these


prerequisites.

Only accessories and supplies either delivered by or approved by AVL are to be used with the
instrument.

Due to the operating principle of the instrument, analytical accuracy not only depends on
correct operation and function, but also upon a variety of external influences beyond the
manufacturers control. Therefore, the test results from this instrument must be carefully
examined by an expert, before further measures are taken based on the analytical results.

Instrument adjustment and maintenance with removed covers and connected power mains are
only to be performed by a qualified technician who is aware of the dangers involved.

Instrument repairs are only to be performed by the manufacturer or qualified service personnel.

3.4 Service Functions
The Service Functions mode provides a menu of service test functions to assist in
failure diagnosis and identification. A logic flow chart is provided for reference of
the sequences included in the Service Functions mode.

TEST ELECTRODES

This mode allows for the measurement and display of electrode voltages.
Standard A, Standard B or an external sample can be measured to determine
electrode performance and provide measurement data useful in locating electrode
calibration faults. Each electrode parameter will be displayed and the electrode
voltage associated with the sample type selected can be observed.

Example Displays:

Std. A: Na=1582 Std. B: Na=237


K= 654 Cl=-904 K=-988 Cl=647

Ext: Na=1321
K=-598 Cl= -127

TEST SAMPLE SENSOR

In this mode, the sample sensor output is displayed which is useful for electrical
adjustment or for troubleshooting sample sensor faults. A dry sample sensor should
display a value of 100 with a range of 80 to 120. After verifying a dry sensor,
aspiration of a clear fluid (i.e., water) should increase the displayed value by at least
40 units.

Example Display:

DRY 80-120: 102 External: 153


YES=Pump/No=Exit Pump: NO=OFF

42
TEST SnapPak SENSOR (9180 and 9181 only)

In this test, the SnapPak Sensor detects whether the ISE SnapPak™ is in
place. "I" indicates that the ISE SnapPak™ is in place, "O" indicates that it is
either not present or not completely seated.

Example Display:

SnapPak: I
I = IN O = OUT

TEST LANGUAGE SWITCH (9180 and 9181 only)

This mode displays the language selected for display and printout. To change
the selection, set the language switch (located behind printer) to the desired
language. The display will indicate the language choice according to the switch
setting. To activate a new language, turn the analyzer off and back on with the
switch set to the desired language.

Example Display:

Lanugage Switch
English

TEST SAMPLE DOOR (except 9181)

This test verifies the operation of the sample door light gate and its associated
circuitry. The display indicates an “O” or “C” depending on the position of the
door.

Example Display:

Sample Door: C
C:Closed/O:Open

43
TEST PROBE (9181 only)

This test verifies the operation of the sample probe motor, position sensor and
associated circuitry. The "U" represents the output of the upper position sensor, the
"L" represents the output of the lower position sensor.

Example Display:

U=0 L=1

TEST PINCH VALVES

This test turns on/off each solenoid valve as indicated and is useful to verify both
electronic control and mechanical operation of each solenoid valve.

TEST INTERFACE

The Interface Test can be used to verify correct operation of the RS232C serial port.
To operate this test, jumper pin 2 and pin 3 of the rear interface connector prior to
invoking the test. During the interface test, the analyzer sends out a test string and
checks if it is received within a set period of time. If correct operation is observed
after completion of the test, INTERFACE OK will be displayed.

TEST AMPLIFIER

The Amplifier Test displays ground, reference and output voltage of each input
amplifier. The values displayed for each electrode channel will be dependent on the
electrode inputs and may vary. Display of the ground should read between -10mV
and +10mV with the reference voltage reading between -2490mV and -2510mV.
With all inputs open, the display should read +/- 4095 for each channel. On the 9140/
9180/9181, an additional display indicating the temperature voltage and temperature in
degrees C is available to verify the temperature adjustment.

4 Description of Modules

4.1 Mechanical Assemblies

4.1.1 Front Door Assembly

For the 9120, 30, 40 and 80 analyzers, the front door can be removed by moving
the analyzer to the edge of a work surface so the analyzer door, when opened, will
extend past the edge of the work surface. With one hand, hold the analyzer door
near the right side hinge pin and, with the other hand, gently apply pressure to the
middle rear area of the door. This will allow the right hinge pin to clear the retaining
hole in the main chassis. The door can then be removed from the analyzer.
The 9181 front panel can be removed by tilting it slightly away from the analyzer
and lifting it straight up. The plastic window can also be replaced in the field by
gently pressing from the rear of the window and snapping the plastic window out
toward the front of the analyzer door. The door magnets cannot be replaced in the
field as they are glued in place with conductive adhesive.

4.1.2 Needle Unit Assembly

Both sample needle and fill port are designed for easy replacement by the user.
To remove the fill port assembly for replacement, pull the fill port holder towards
the front for easy access. Then, press the two plastic tabs on the fill port to allow
removal of the fill port from the fill port holder. The sample needle can also be
removed and is supplied as a one-piece assembly including the intake tubing.
To remove the sample needle, grasp the needle near the white holder block and pull
up to unsnap the sample needle from its position. To replace the assembly, align a
replacement sample needle and press the replacement assembly into place.

Three screws located on the left side of the assembly hold the needle unit assembly
in place. To access the two rear screws, turn power off and remove the rear panel.
The rear panel can be moved away from the unit for easier access by unplugging the
wire harness from the power supply. The SBC board can now be removed by
removing the screws which secure the SBC board and disconnecting the cables on
the SBC board. Disconnect the connector to the lamp board which supplies the
Door Open signal. The two rear screws which secure the needle unit can now be
removed using an Allen wrench. Then, remove the front securing screw, the sample
intake tubing and the reagent supply tubing (red tag) from the fill port. The needle
unit can now be removed from the front of the analyzer for replacement. Reference
the Illustrated Parts diagram in Section 8 for a detailed parts diagram of the needle
unit.

48
4.1.3 Electrode Holder Assembly

To remove the electrode holder assembly from the analyzer, first unplug the
sample intake tubing on the right side of the module, then the sample sensor
cable, then remove the reference solution tubing connector and last, take out the
waste tube (green tag) at the left side of the electrode holder. The electrode
holder can now be removed by pressing the two plastic tabs (right and left side
of the module) and sliding the module forward. Press the plastic tabs again to
release the second detent and completely remove the module from the analyzer.
The sample sensor and/or the left side electrode holder can be removed and
replaced by removing the screws on the under side of this module. The Illus-
trated Parts List in Section 8 provides a detailed reference of the parts of this
assembly.

4.1.4 Peristaltic Pump Assembly

Replacement of the roller assembly of the peristaltic pump can be accomplished


by removing the pump tubing and firmly pulling the roller assembly toward the
front. To replace the roller assembly, align the roller and the flat on the motor
shaft and press the replacement roller into position.

To remove the motor, first remove the rear panel assembly and SBC Board as
described in Sections 4.1.7 and 4.1.8. Now, the electrical connector on the
lamp board can be accessed to unplug the motor connector. The motor can
now be removed by removing four screws located on the front of the housing
near the peristaltic pump.

4.1.5 Solenoid Assembly

Removal of each solenoid is identical. Each solenoid valve has a removable


pressure piece which is held in place by a solenoid cap. To remove the pres-
sure piece, locate the arrow on the solenoid cap and remove the solenoid cap
by sliding it off the solenoid shaft in the direction of the arrow. This exposes the
pressure piece which can now be removed from the solenoid shaft. To replace
pressure piece and cap, energize the solenoid as described in Section 3.2 (Test
Valves). This extends the solenoid shaft to the outermost position for ease in
replacing pressure piece and cap. Removal of the pressure piece and cap is
required prior to removing the solenoid and allows for easier replacement of the
tubing under each solenoid.

49
To remove the solenoid assembly, the rear panel and the SBC Board described in
Section 4.1.8 must be removed first. Each solenoid has an electrical connection to
the lamp board which must be unplugged prior to removal of the solenoid. At this
point, remove the two screws on the front panel to remove the solenoid assembly.

4.1.6 Printer Assembly

The printer assembly is designed to allow for easy removal by the user which can be
accomplished without removal of the electrical power to the analyzer. Slide the
paper tray forward to allow access to the printer, tear the paper roll and completely
remove it together with the paper tray. Slide fingers under the printer assembly and
pull the printer forward. This will disengage the printer from the interconnector and
enable removal of the assembly from the front of the analyzer. Removal of the
printer should be performed for replacement and for removal of a paper jam.
To replace the printer, locate the printer slide and insert the printer assembly. Press
firmly into place to ensure electrical connection of the printer.

Note: Never attempt to dislodge paper from the printer with a paper clip or
similar object to avoid damage to the print head or printer platen.

4.1.7 Rear Panel Assembly

To remove the rear panel assembly, ensure that the power cord has been discon-
nected. Remove the four corner screws to expose the rear panel. The power
supply module located on the rear panel assembly can now be removed by remov-
ing the three screws securing the circuit board and by disconnecting the wiring
interconnections. The main power receptacle can also be replaced by removing the
two screws holding this assembly.

4.1.8 SBC Board

After the rear panel (Section 4.1.7) has been removed, the SBC Board is acces-
sible for removal. This circuit board can be removed by removing the seven
screws securing the board to the housing and by disconnecting electrical connectors
from the power supply module, display board and lamp board.
The electrode push pins can now be replaced by simply pulling the connecting pin
from its socket. When installing the board, make sure to place the plastic washers
under the screw heads.

50
4.1.9 Lamp Board

The rear panel and SBC board must be removed to gain access to the lamp
board. Remove one screw and washer which hold the board in place and
remove the electrical connectors to remove this board.

4.1.10 Display Board

The rear panel and SBC board must be removed to gain access to the display
board. Remove three screws and 50 degree spacers and unplug the sample
sensor cable from the front and the ribbon cable to the SBC board to remove
the display board.

51
4.2 Fluidic Module

4.2.1 Standard A

Standard A is drawn to the electrode module by vacuum provided by the peristaltic


pump. When Standard A is to be aspirated into the electrode module, solenoid
valve A is opened and solenoid valves B, V and R are closed. Standard A is then
drawn from the ISE SnapPakTM, to the fill port, through the sample needle and is
sensed by the sample sensor. At this point, solenoid valve V is opened and sole-
noid valve A is closed as the peristaltic pump continues to pump Standard A into
the electrode module. As the trailing edge of the Standard A sample is sensed by
the sample sensor, the peristaltic pump stops. During the time Standard A is
aspirated into the electrode module, the reference housing is pressurized due to the
peristaltic pump providing pressure to the reference solution line and solenoid valve
R being closed. An amount of reference solution is forced out through the reference
junction to provide contact to the sample.

4.2.2 Standard B/C

The process for Standard B/C is identical to that of Standard A with the exception
of the operation of solenoid valves B and C. These solenoid valves are operated in
reverse order of Standard A aspiration.

4.2.3 Reference Solution

The reference housing is filled automatically using the second winding of the
peristaltic pump and solenoid valve R. The reference solution connector allows for
the reference housing tubing to be plugged into the reference solution circuit. As the
peristaltic pump aspirates reference solution, solenoid valve R is opened to allow
excess solution to be pumped into the reference return line of the ISE SnapPakTM.

4.2.4 Waste Liquids

Calibration standard and sample waste are pumped out of the left side of the
electrode module (green-banded tubing) through the peristaltic pump to the waste
line of the ISE SnapPakTM. An internal one-way valve is incorporated into the
waste line of each ISE SnapPakTM to prevent any waste products from leaking
out of the ISE SnapPakTM.

52
4.2.5 Main Tube Set

The main tube set is supplied as a pre-cut tubing harness with the fluidic inter-
connections preassembled. Replacement of the tube set should be performed
annually. For removal of the tubing, first remove the ISE SnapPakTM from the
reagent compartment. This will allow access for removal of the white TPR
block which is the main interconnection between the ISE SnapPakTM and the
tubing. This block can be removed by grasping the front surface and pulling
forward. Next, remove tubing from each solenoid valve. Follow the procedure
outlined in Section 4.1.5 for disassembly of the solenoid valves to enable fluidic
tubing to be easily removed at each solenoid. Pull the two pump windings at the
peristaltic pump tube set off the pump roller and remove the white reference
solution tube connector. Remove the white TPR reference solution block by
grasping the front of the block and pulling forward. The three tube connections
are labeled with green, blue and red tags. All remaining tubes can now be
removed and the entire tubing harness can be discarded.

Fit the replacement tubing harness and assemble in reverse order as disassem-
bly. Reference the Tube Diagram on the next page for correct tube locations.

4.3 Electronics

4.3.1 ISE SBC Card

Power Circuits

Power is supplied to this circuit board through connector JP3 from the power
supply assembly. Test points are provided to measure supply voltages, and light
emitting diodes D1 through D5 are turned on to indicate each supply voltage
present on the card. Since each LED is connected in series after the fuse, a blown
fuse results in the respective LED turned off.

Four additional voltage regulator circuits are mounted on the ISE SBC II Card. IC
U2 and IC U3 provide -8 VDC and +8 VDC (9180/9181: -5 VDC and +5 VDC)
and are used to provide the supply voltages for the analog circuitry. IC U1 devel-
ops the supply voltage used to operate the peristaltic pump and provide either +10
VDC or +22 VDC. The +22 VDC is supplied only for the FAST speed and +10
VDC is used for all other pump speeds. Signal FAST/SLOW determines which
supply voltage is selected.

U5 switches the voltage between 22VDC and 12.5 VDC which supplies the
solenoids. When a solenoid is turned on, the voltage switches to 22VDC for 0.5
sec, then it returns to 12.5 VDC.

The circuit which includes Q7 and R5 provides necessary switching for the measur-
ing chamber illuminator LED’s.

The following list identifies the test points, fuses and LED’s for each respective DC
supply voltage:

Valve Drivers

The solenoids are activated by transistors Q9 - Q13. To open the solenoid, a


0.5-second pulse of 22 volts is applied, then the voltage drops down to 12.5
volts to hold the solenoid open.

Pump Motor Driver/Cover Sensor

The pump driver circuit IC U9 and IC U10 provide the drive and control for
the peristaltic pump. Signals PUMPEN, Pump Enable and PUMPSTEP, Pump
Step Pulses enable IC U10 to provide the necessary control to driver IC U9
which supplies pump drive signals PHASE A through PHASE D to control
peristaltic pump operation.

IC U11 operates with signal DCLOSED from the sample door light gate to
provide signal DOOR which detects the status of the sample door (open or
closed).

Input Amplifiers

IC U13, U14 and U15 (9180/9181: U13 only) provide high to low input
impedance matching for each Electrode input. Offset generator IC U12D and
amplifiers IC U12A, U12B and U12C provide the necessary gain and offset for
each electrode channel. TP9, TP10 and TP11 provide test points for the Na+,
K+ and Cl-/Ca++/Li channels respectively.

Temperature Sensor

This is an optional circuit which is used in the 9140, 9180 and 9181.
The circuit creates a temperature-dependent voltage which is converted by
software to degrees C. R54 can be adjusted for correct temperature setting.

Analog Channel Selector and A/D Converter

Analog inputs from the input amplifiers are selected via signals ADSEL0 through
ADSEL2 and are multiplexed by IC U19. This multiplexed signal is then fed to
the A/D Converter IC U20. IC U21 supplies the necessary reference voltage
(2500mV) for the A/D Converter and can be measured at TP14.

57
Microprocessor

Microprocessor IC U31, EPROM IC U25 (9180/9181: U40) and MOSTEK Real


Time Clock/RAM IC U22 form the components of the central processing system.
IC U23 Address Demultiplexer, IC U24 Programmable Array Logic (PAL) and IC
U28 provide serial data buses (9180/9181: U23, U24 and U28 not present). IC
U34 through IC U38 convert serial data to parallel data and provide printer data,
display data, solenoid valve control and peristaltic pump control. This fashion of
serial to parallel data conversion is used to prevent analyzer lock-up by peripheral
devices. The RS232 serial interface is a direct input/output from the microproces-
sor utilizing interface driver and receiver U29 and U30.

SnapPak Sensor (9180/9181 only)

Optical detector ISO1 provides a signal indicating if the ISE SnapPak™ is in place.
This signal is fed to U41 which converts the light gate input to a digital logic output
indicating SnapPak position (IN or OUT).

4.3.2 Lamp Board

The lamp board contains the LED array used to illuminate the measuring chamber
and the interconnectors used for all solenoids, the peristaltic pump, door sensor and
sample turntable (9181 only). A ribbon cable from the SBC Board supplies the
electrical connection for each signal through connector JP6.

4.3.3 Display Board

The display board contains the LCD display, sample sensor connector and the
YES and NO switches used for operation of the analyzer. Power and signal
interconnection is accomplished via a ribbon cable from the SBC board through
JP2 on the display board.

Display boards utilized in the 9181 analyzer also contain circuitry for both the
needle mechanism motor control and position sensor. The autosampler "Table
Present" signal is also buffered through U1 on this board.

58
5 Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Maintenance procedures for the 9120, 30, 40, 80, 81 Analyzers require minimal

59
5.2 Error Messages and Troubleshooting

STATUS: NOT CALIBRATED

This message is only displayed when a calibration has been interrupted by


pressing NO or opening the sample door. Perform a calibration to return to the
READY Mode.

STANDARD A NOT DETECTED

This message is displayed when the sample sensor is unable to properly detect
the Standard A solution in a programmed time period. As the analyzer draws a
sample of Standard A, the leading edge of the solution is detected by the
sample sensor. The sample sensor must also detect a continuous flow of
Standard A Solution into the sample chamber, lasting several seconds, without
encountering air bubbles or air. After several seconds, the trailing edge of the
Standard A sample is sensed, the peristaltic pump stops and measurement
occurs.

Possible causes and remedies:

• Check for air leaks preventing the Standard from being drawn into the
chamber. Ensure that all O-rings are in place. There must be a
continuous draw of standard solution, free of air bubbles.
Check solenoid V for proper sealing of the vent line.
Check fill port to ensure the absence of air leaks.

• Check for clots or crystals formed in the Standard A tubing or


electrode chamber.

• Ensure that the sample sensor is plugged in securely and perform


Sample Sensor Test to ensure sensor is operating correctly. Clean,
adjust or replace sample sensor to correct sample sensor operation.

• Replace peristaltic pump tube set to ensure proper sample aspiration.

• Check the fluid remaining in the ISE SnapPakTM. If less than 5%


remains, replace the ISE SnapPakTM.

60
STANDARD B NOT DETECTED
STANDARD C NOT DETECTED (9180/9181 only)

The system for drawing Standard B or C is like that of Standard A. If Standard A


is drawn properly and Standard B or C is not detected, check Standard B tubing
for crystallization. Perform checks for Standard A detection problems to correct.
During the calibration sequence, Standard B or C is drawn into the measuring
chamber prior to Standard A, therefore check if Standard A calibrant can be
properly detected to isolate possible fluidic faults. If neither Standard A, B nor C
are detected check for air leaks or blockages within the fluidic path.

CHECK SAMPLE SENSOR

The sample sensor must provide a reading of 80 - 120 when air is detected.
Perform Test Sample Sensor to observe sample sensor response. When clear fluid
(e.g. water) is aspirated, the sample sensor display must indicate an increase of of at
least 40 units. For blood samples (not transparent), the reading should decrease by
at least 40 units. The sample sensor is calibrated with air during each calibration.
Perform a calibration to remove the error message after troubleshooting.

Possible causes and remedies:

• Clean sample sensor using Daily Cleaning procedure.

• Check for correct drying of measuring chamber during the wash cycle.

• Replace peristaltic pump tube set.

• Test and adjust sample sensor to correct adjustment.

• Replace sample sensor assembly.

61
CHECK REFERENCE HOUSING

At the beginning of a calibration, pressure is formed in the reference housing


while the R valve is closed and the V valve is open. After Standard A is
detected in the sample chamber, the back pressure formed in the reference
housing causes the Standard A solution to move back toward the sample
sensor. When the standard A solution is detected by the sample sensor, the R
valve is opened to release the pressure. If the sample sensor does not detect
standard A as it moves back, CHECK REFERENCE HOUSING will be
displayed.

Possible causes and remedies:

• Check for clogged reference housing and clean per monthly


maintenance procedures.

• Check and ensure that reference tubing is securely connected at the


tubing connector.

• Check for proper filling of the reference housing and ensure that
reference solution reagent level allows complete filling of the
reference housing.

• Check for bubble-free aspiration of Standard A.

PLEASE CLOSE SAMPLE DOOR (except 9181)

This message occurs and prints NO SAMPLE on the print-out, when either of
two conditions exists.

1. Sample door is not closed within 20 seconds after samples are in


place.

aspiration and no air bubbles are present as solution is aspirated.

• Check to ensure that the solution is being aspirated through the sampling
mechanism correctly. The sample path must be free of leaks or clots.

• Verify that sample sensor is properly plugged in and perform the


SAMPLE SENSOR TEST to verify the correct operation of the
sample sensor.

• Check pump tubing and replace as necessary to ensure a correct pump


rate.

63
CONDITIONING FLUID NOT DETECTED

When the conditioning cycle has been initiated, the analyzer checks for proper
aspiration of the conditioning solution using the sample sensor. If the solution is
not detected in the proper time, this error message will be displayed.

Possible causes and remedies:

• Ensure that a sufficient volume of conditioning solution is presented for


aspiration and no air bubbles are present as solution is aspirated.

• Check to ensure that the solution is being properly aspirated


through the sampling mechanism. The sample path must be free of
leaks or clots.

• Verify that sample sensor is correctly plugged in and perform the


SAMPLE SENSOR TEST to verify its proper operation.

6 Adjustments

The 9120, 30, 40, 80 and 81 Analyzers have been designed to require minimal
electronic adjustment. The sample sensor circuit may require adjustment following a
change of the sample sensor or during routine troubleshooting. The temperature
adjustment is active only for models 9140/9180/9181 and requires the temperature
adjustment test plug for correct calibration of the temperature circuit.

6.1 Sample Sensor Adjustment

Select TEST SAMPLE SENSOR in the SERVICE FUNCTIONS menu


which will display the current sample sensor setting. Adjust R93 Sample Sensor
Adjust located at the top of the ISE SBC card to a value of 100. Press YES to
turn on peristaltic pump and ensure displayed value remains constant.

Raise sample door and aspirate clear fluid (e.g. water). Displayed reading should
now be 150 or greater.

Note: R93 can be accessed through the rear cover vent slot and is located at
the top center on the circuit card.

6.2 Temperature Adjustment (9140/9180/9181 only)

Select AMPLIFIER TEST in the SERVICE FUNCTIONS menu which will


display the current amplifier voltages. Press NO twice to display the temperature
voltage and actual temperature display. Unplug the sample sensor and fit the
Temperature Adjustment Test Plug in place of the sample sensor plug. Adjust R54
located on the SBC Board for a display of 3000mV. Unplug the Temperature
Adjustment Test Plug and fit the sample sensor connector to display the actual
temperature of the measuring chamber.

Due to the elevated temperature inside the analyzer, it is normal for the
displayed temperature to be several degrees C higher than the actual room
temperature.

If no Temperature Adjustment Test Plug is available, place a quality thermometer


(preferably mercury) next to the right side electrode holder. With the front door
open, wait approx. 10 min. Then adjust the displayed temperature to match the
reading on the thermometer.

9 Interface Specifications

9.1 Interface Information


The AVL 9120, 30, 40, 80 and 81 analyzers are equipped with a standard
serial interface output. This interface output is intended to be used with
standard commercially available computer systems.

The data transmitted through the serial interface port employs the ASCII code.

The serial interface is terminated on the rear cover with a 9-pin male DB-9
connector.

The signal levels are as follows:

- Binary 1 = -12V to -3V


- Binary 0 = +3V to +12V

Two stop bits follow the eight data bits to complete the 10 bit word.

The baud rate is set at 9600 Baud fixed.

The maximal recommended cable length is 40 feet.

The pin assignment is as follows:

pin 1...sample ground...GND


pin 2...receive data....RxD
pin 3...send data.......TxD
pin 4...NC
pin 5...signal ground...GND
pin 6...NC
pin 7...RTS
pin 8...CTS
pin 9...NC

(NC=Not Connected)

107
Software

The patient sample data is sent at the end of each measurement, the calibra-
tion report is sent at the end of each calibration.

The interface is always on, independent of the printer settings; the data is
always sent.

Note: The arrow up (e.g. out of normal range) is sent as HEX 18 (↑), the
arrow down as HEX19 (↓) and the ° (degree) is sent as HEX1A (→).

9.3 Data Link Information(9180/9181 only)


The data link with the AVL Compact 2/3 blood gas analyzer allows to
combine ISE results with pH/blood gas results on one printout. If Ca++ is
activated on the 9180/9181, a pH-corrected Ca++ value will be calculated
and printed on the combined sample report.

For connection of the 9180/9181 analyzer to the Compact 2/3 analyzer, the
optional Interface Kit (BP5202) is required. To install the kit, first turn
both instruments off. Connect the interface filter provided in the kit to the
RS232 port on the 9180/9181. Then connect one end of the cable to the
interface filter, the other end to the COM 2 port on the Compact 2/3. On
the Compact 2/3, select 9180 under the COM2 interface options.
See Compact 2/3 Operator's Manual for details.
