APPENDIX 2. Description on Contact Signal Communication

1. Outline

2. Contact Signals Entering the e-Line Connector

The following two types of contact signals are used in the
Chromaster series.
(1) Contact signals (START, ERROR, BUSY) entering the
e-Line connector.
These are contact signals having input/output functions that
are used in common for each unit. These signals are
respectively formed from the START (IN/OUT), ERROR
(IN/OUT), and BUSY (IN/OUT) lines.
(2) Individual contact signals used by each unit.
These are contact signals that are input and output via 3-pin
connector. Their names and functions vary with the unit.
A name that indicates the function is given at each
connector.
• Example of output contact signal: EVENT of pump
• Example of input contact signal: LAMP OFF IN of detector
Each unit has two e-Line connectors for connection at the rear of
the main unit, and the signals of each unit in series via the e-Line
cable, synchronism of the Chromaster series system can be
easily achieved.
For obtaining synchronism with the L-2000 series and/or D-2500
by way of contact signals, use the cables listed below for the
connection.
