PowerChrom
Injection Signal Input
The injection signal input uses a solid-state relay input to recognize
external relay closures. A closure of 10 ms or more results in the
registering of the injection signal with the PowerChrom program. The
input can also be connected to a logic or voltage level output of
another instrument provided the device can sink several milliamperes of
current. The equivalent circuit of the injector signal input (TRIG) is
shown in
.
Digital Outputs
There are four digital control outputs (marked CTL1, CTL2, CTL3, and
CTL4), each of which provide a logic level or contact closure
depending on the presence, or absence, of the corresponding links to
