30 User Manual Synertia® RF Generator
The information contained in this manual is subject to change by Comet Yxlon without prior notice.
2.2.4 Control modes
You can control the Synertia® RF generator using one of the following methods:
• remotely via the analog/digital User Port;
see section 9.2 “User Port – 15-pin analog/digital interface (optional)” on page 76.
• remotely via digital communication interfaces such as RS-232, EtherCAT® or any
other optional digital interface.
2.2.5 Required supplies
• Air-cooled generators
The generator operates from a single-phase 230 V AC nominal 50 Hz to 60 Hz
power source.
• Water-cooled generators
The generator operates from a 3-phase 200 - 480 V AC nominal 50 Hz to 60 Hz
power source.
2.2.6 Self-protection of the product
The generator has several self-protection conditions. All errors can be monitored via the
digital remote interfaces and of course in the user interface. Synertia® RF generators use
a protection circuit that checks the real limits for a safe and reliable operation, including:
Environmental conditions out of specification
• Surveillance of cooling media based on temperature measurements
• Humidity surveillance
Supply voltage or control signals out of specification
• AC mains input voltage too low or too high
• Signal voltage on interfaces too low or too high (e. g. CEX input)
• Frequency of external pulse signal out of specification
• Frequency of external CEX signal out of specification
