AMI Sample Sequencer
Product Description
Operating The AMI Sample Sequencer provides the following two operating
Modes modes
Internal
Set the AMI Sample Sequencer to the mode <Internal> if it is
connected to an analyzer for continuous measurement. In
this operating mode the AMI Sample Sequencer works as
master. It switches the sample streams according to the pro-
grammed cycle time. There is no communication between the
instruments, only measuring values are transferred via signal
outputs 1 and 2 of the analyzer to the signal inputs 1 and 2 of
the AMI Sample Sequencer. For further information see
Sample Sequencer Inputs for Batch Measurement, S. 28
AMI
Set the AMI Sample Sequencer to the mode <AMI> if it is
connected to an analyzer for batch measurement. In this op-
erating mode the AMI Sample Sequencer works as slave, ei-
ther of the analyzer or of an external PLC. Communication
between the instruments takes place via I2C interface. For
further information see Connect the I2C Bus, S. 26.
Signal 6 current outputs to transfer the measuring values of the AMI trans-
Outputs mitter to a PLC device.
Relay 6 signal outputs for indication of the 6-way valve position.
1 signal output for flow alarm.
Inputs 6 signal inputs to override programmed measuring sequences, by
activating or deactivating an input. The functionality depends on the
settings of the instruments.
Safety No data loss after power failure. All data is saved in non-volatile
Features memory. Over voltage protection of in- and outputs. Galvanic sepa-
ration of measuring inputs and signal outputs.The analyzer is facto-
ry tested and ready for installation and operation.

AMI Sample Sequencer
Product Description
Fluidics The sample enters the flow cell blocks [C, D, E] via the sample in-
lets [I]. Each sample inlet is equipped with a flow regulating valve
[G]. The sample flows through the active sample line via 6-way
valve [A] and flow meter [F] to the instrument. The 6-way valve
switches sequentially from sample line 1 to 6 in a programmed in-
terval. Excessive sample (e.g. inactive sample lines) flows via over-
flow [H] to the atmospheric drain [J].

Sample Sequencer, for better understanding they are
integrated in the illustrations below.
• The meaning of the different squares is explained in
chapter 5, Operation.
Step 1 The solenoid valve [C] is open.
The 6-way valve [A] is on position 1 and the sample stream 1
flows via constant head [B] through the photometer [D]. No
measurement is performed at this time.
The square indicates that sample stream 1 is selected but not
yet measured.

Mode External If the AMI analyzer is set to mode external, each sample stream to
be measured has to be activated by closing the respective contact.
In the example below, the sample stream 3 (CH3) highlighted in
green will be measured as soon as the AMI analyzer has finished
the previous measurement.

Error
Non-fatal Error. Indicates an alarm if a programmed value is ex-
ceeded.
Such Errors are marked E0xx (bold and black).
Fatal Error (blinking symbol)
The indicated measured values are possibly incorrect.
Fatal Errors are divided in the following two categories:
Errors which disappear if correct measuring conditions are re-
covered (e.g. Sample Flow low).
Such Errors are marked E0xx (bold and orange)
Errors which indicate a hardware failure of the instrument.
Such Errors are marked E0xx (bold and red)

1.1 Pending Errors
1.1.5 Provides the list of active errors with their status (active, acknowl-
edged). If an active error is acknowledged, the alarm relay opens
again. Cleared errors are moved to the Message list.
1.2 Message List
1.2.1 Shows the error history: Error code, date / time of issue and status
(active, acknowledged, cleared). 65 errors are memorized. Then
the oldest error is cleared to save the newest error (circular buffer).
2 Diagnostics

5 Installation
5.1 Sequence
5.1.1 Mode: Internal, AMI
Mode Internal: Set Mode to Internal if the AMI Sample Sequencer
is connected to an AMI Sodium A or an AMI Sodium P. In this Mode
the AMI Sample Sequencer automatically switches from sample 1
to max. 6.
Mode AMI: Set Mode to AMI if the AMI Sample Sequencer is con-
nected to an AMI Silica or AMI Phosphate HL. In this Mode the AMI
Sample Sequencer works as a slave of the AMI analyzer. No fur-
ther settings are available in the Mode AMI.
