3. Put the control unit onto the support rods in the sample chamber so that the
photodiode (3 in Fig. 20-6) faces the polychromator of the SPECORD S600.
This unit controls the shutter (1 in Fig. 20-6) synchronously with the shutter
in the source unit of the SPECORD S600. Tighten the adjusting screw (2 in
Fig. 20-6) just so far that the control unit is seated without play in the
sample compartment.

4. Put the sphere body onto the support rods with its beam exit aperture (1 in
Fig. 20-7) facing the polychromator. Then, push it to the right to the control
unit as far as it will go. The mechanical stop ensures a reproducible
installation position.
5. To start up the unit, establish the connection between sphere body and
control unit using cable (10 in Fig. 20-1) and the connection between
sphere body and transformer (1 in Fig. 20-1) using low-voltage cable (14 in
Fig. 20-1).
6. Connect the sphere body with the transformer via coupling (16 in Fig. 20-1).
7. Connect the power cable to the transformer and plug the power plug (2 in
Fig. 20-1) into the power outlet.
8. Actuate the switch (3 in Fig. 20-1) to turn on the lamp in the sphere body.
The lamp is cooled permanently by a fan with heat sink (13 in Fig. 20-1)).
