Vapourtec R4 heating module

Additional software needed!

To control the Vapourtec R2 reactor, a set of serial commands are required. These cannot be provided with flowchem as they were provided under the terms of an NDA. You can contact your Vapourtec representative for further help on this matter.

The Vapourtec R4 module can be used both as a standalone reactor temperature control unit or as a part of an R2 assembly. Here the former case is assumed, for a description of the R2 reactor visit the R2 reactor page.

Note

Serial connection parameters Note, further parameters for the serial connections (i.e. those accepted by serial.Serial) such as baudrate, parity, stopbits and bytesize can be specified. However, it should not be necessary as the following values (which are the default for the instrument) are automatically used:

• timeout 0.1s

• baudrate 19200

• parity none

• stopbits 1

• bytesize 8
