3.3 Short Description of Basic Functions and Directions For
Installation
3.3.1 Mains Connection
The Placer Control Box has to be connected to the mains via the POWER IN plug in
the rear panel of the box using the supplied cable.
As soon as the Placer Control Box is switched on, the rear mains outlet AUX POWER
OUT is energized. Please connect all additional control boxes via the supplied
multiple box plugged into AUX POWER OUT so all FINEPLACER
-modules are
switched on at the same time.
Check your mains voltage! The box must not be connected to mains
voltages different to those indicated on the rear panel's type plate.
The socket 'POWER IN' contains a fuse which exclusively serves to protect the Placer
Control Box but not all the other control boxes connected to the multiple socket.
Please take care never to exceed the maximum output current of 10 A
at 230 V or 15 A at 115 V (resistive load) respectively delivered by the
AUX POWER OUT socket.
There are two different green LED's. The LED 'LINE' indicates the presence of the
mains voltage whereas the LED 'ON' shines as soon as the equipment is switched on.
3.3.2 Displays and Operating Elements
The LED 'VACUUM STATUS' and the interior red lit switch 'VACS OFF' is used for
indication and further control of the vacuum. More detailed information about the
meaning and function of these elements is given in the following operating
instructions of the Placer Control Box (see below).
Pushing the selector switch 'PIPETTE MODE' changes the working method of the
pipette.
In the case of the lambda standard configuration the revolution transmitters 'HEAD'
is without function, and works only in combination with optional illumination
modules.
