To verify the current software version select “About”.
The currently running software version is displayed.
To exit, press “NAVIGATE TO PREVIOUS“ to return to the previous menu, or “NAVIGATE TO HOME” to return to the
home screen.
b. Run Setup
The Run Setup menus allow the user to set the parameters that will regulate the behavior of the pump for each run mode.
From the setup screen, select “Run Setup” and then press ENTER.
The Run Setup screen is displayed.
The ARO Controller can run each pump in one of three possible modes:
a. Batch mode
b. Proportional mode
c. Manual mode
Select the desired mode to program and then press ENTER. For an explanation of these three modes, see
sections 1.b.i through 1.b.iii.
i. Batch Mode
Batch mode allows dispensing a precise amount of uid, at a speci ed ow or cycle rate. Each pump can be programmed to perform up to two
independent batch sequences, named A and B.
If batch mode is selected, two di erent batch programs can be entered. Select the desired batch program to
modify, and then press ENTER.
Type the desired total batch volume and the ow rate for the selected batch.
Notice: That the units of measure match what was selected in section 1.a. Press ENTER to accept each value.
To exit the screen without starting the pump under the programmed conditions, press either “NAVIAGATE TO
PREVIOUS” or “NAVIGATE TO HOME”.
If the particular program needs to be started right away, select “Begin Run” and then press ENTER. The entered
program will start.
As the program is executed, the screen will display the progress accomplished so far.
Notice: That the pump status is shown as “Running” instead of “Stopped”.
While the pump is running the batch program, it is possible to stop the pump momentarily (pause) without
losing tally of the amount dispensed. To do so, press the START/PAUSE button.
Pressing the “STOP” button will cause the pump to stop and reset the batch program.
When the program nishes (when the total selected volume is reached), the pump stops, as indicated.
If the same program needs be executed again, select “Repeat Batch” and then press ENTER.
To exit the screen without executing the program, press either “NAVIGATE TO PREVIOUS” or “NAVIGATE TO
HOME”.
ii. Proportional Mode
Proportional mode allows for an analog input to be used as the pump speed controlling factor. In this mode, the pump speed will depend,
proportionally and linearly to the analog input signal. The de nition of the slope and relationship between the input signal and pump speed
are explained in the next step.
On the Run Setup screen, select “Proportional”.
Type the corresponding mili-amperes (mA) minimum and maximum values for the input signal and their corre-
sponding ow or cycle rate equivalents.
Make sure the units of measure match the values selected in section 1.a.
To exit the screen without starting the pump under the programmed conditions, press either “NAVIGATE TO
PREVIOUS” or “NAVIGATE TO HOME”.
If the particular program needs to be started right away, select “Begin Run” and then press ENTER. The entered
program will start.
