Introduction
General
This document describes the configuration of the Varian ProStar
210, 215 and Varian PrepStar 218, SD-1 pump driver. It also
explains how to build a control method for this driver, how to start
and view a running acquisition and what actions are available
during an analysis.
The ProStar 210, 215 and PrepStar 218 Solvent Delivery
Modules are identical in appearance and operation. The ProStar
215 and PrepStar 218 have more powerful motors, larger power
supplies and can operate at higher pressures than the ProStar
210. The pressures are identified in the Appendix.
The manual will refer to the pumps as 210/215/218/SD-1
throughout.

Installation and
Configuration
Installing the Driver Software
To install the Galaxie Drivers software refer to the Galaxie Data
System Installation Guide.
Configuring the Communication Server
To communicate with the ProStar 210-215-218-SD-1 module a
RS232_Interface or a RS232_PC communication bus must be
configured on the acquisition server.
The parameters of the bus to must be the following:
Stops
1 Stop
Baud 19200
Parity EVEN
Bits 8 Bits
Flow Control NONE
Buffer Tx 4096
Buffer Rx 4096
NOTE: For more details about the configuration of a RS232_Interface or a RS232_PC
bus, refer to the Galaxie Chromatography Data System Installation’s Guide.

Configuring the Driver
The driver software configuration is done in the Galaxie
Configuration Manager when a new chromatographic system is
created.
Configuring the ProStar / PrepStar Pump
Click on the button corresponding to the ProStar /
PrepStar pump driver and the pump configuration screen
appears:
The toolbar allows you to easily scroll through the configuration
windows:
to select the first configuration window.
to select the previous configuration window.
to select the next configuration window.
to select the final configuration window.
ProStar 210/215/ PrepStar 218/SD-1 SDM -6- 03-914947-20:5
Communications Window
Select from the list the name of the RS422 Bus where the
system has been connected.
NOTE: For more details about the RS422 Bus configuration, refer to the section
Configuring the Communication Server in this manual.
Selection will not appear
until the RS422 BUS is
configured.
ProStar 210/215/ PrepStar 218/SD-1 SDM -7- 03-914947-20:5
Hardware Window
Select from the list the type of the pump: isocratic, binary,
ternary, quaternary, isocratic + injector, binary + injector, ternary
+ injector. A new tab (Pump B, Pump C, Pump D or Injector)
appears depending on the selected type of pump.
NOTE:
- The system must be equipped by at least two ProStar / PrepStar modules to work as a
binary pump, three modules for a ternary one and four to work in quaternary mode.
- With this type of pump, a module can be used as an injector. In this case a new
Injection screen becomes active in the method. To learn more about this option, refer to
the chapter Control method for the ProStar / PrepStar pump.
- When an Injector module is configured, in the lower part of the Galaxie Configuration
Manager an injector (of the new system) called ProStar 210/215/218 pump is created.
The ID entered here
must match the ID of
the pump.
ProStar 210/215/ PrepStar 218/SD-1 SDM -8- 03-914947-20:5
Enter the identification number of the pump module in the RS-
422 unit ID field. The RS-422 unit ID field must match the ID
specified on the pump itself. To check the ID on the pump, press
Setup on the pump (no flow), scroll left until the ID is displayed.
Press Enter when finished.
Select from the list the model of the pump module. Four choices
are available: ProStar 210, 215, PrepStar 218 and SD-1.
The 210/215/218 modules are identical in appearance and
operation. They differ only in one respect: the ProStar 215 and
PrepStar 218 have more powerful motors, larger power supplies
and can operate at higher pressures than the ProStar 210.
NOTE: The pump head size must be configured on the instrument. Maximum flow rates
authorized in Galaxie will then depend on that configuration.
- With ProStar 210/215 and PrepStar 218: press the ~ button to access the setup menu
and enter the correct head size under Hdsz section using the ▲and ▼buttons.
- With the PrepStar SD-1: press the ~ button to access the setup menu. Select YES
under Change Pump using the ▲and ▼buttons and follow the procedure displayed in
the LCD screen. At the end of the procedure, new pump head size will be automatically
configured.
Please refer to the instrument manual for more details.
ProStar 210/215/ PrepStar 218/SD-1 SDM -9- 03-914947-20:5
Pressures Window
Select from the list the Pressure units. Three choices are
available: bar, PSI and kPa.
Configuring the Synopsis
In the Overview part of the system configuration, a synopsis can
be defined for the system. This synopsis depends on the
configured devices.
1. To save the configuration of these devices, click on the OK
button.
2. Right click on the system name in the bottom part of the
Galaxie Configuration Manager screen. A pop-up menu
appears: click on Stop. Then right click on the system name
again, and click on Start.
ProStar 210/215/ PrepStar 218/SD-1 SDM -10- 03-914947-20:5
3. Go back to the System Configuration screen (Properties
wizard). A graphic of the devices that comprise the system is
displayed in the synopsis screen. To configure the synopsis
as the real instrument configuration, move each module, and
then connect it appropriately. To do this, select one anchor
for each of the two modules (the selected anchors become
red) and click on the button; a connection tube will
appear between the two anchors.
Click on the button to delete a selected tube, click on
the button to delete all the tubes.
Click on to define a background color, or on to
make the background transparent.
Click on the icon to change the grid color.
4. Once the synopsis configuration is correctly done, it will be
displayed in Galaxie Chromatography Data System, in the
Systems tab. In this tab, the Overview part will show the
synopsis of the system with some parameters displayed
(temperature, flow, signal, etc.) depending on the installed
devices.
For example, the following pictures represent the synopsis of
the ProStar / PrepStar pump:
