SQC-310 Operating Manual
2.5.1 Establishing Earth Ground
WARNING - Risk Of Electric Shock
Follow local electrical regulations and codes.
1 Install two 3 m (10 ft.) long copper-clad steel ground rods into the soil, spaced
at least 1.9 m (6.2 ft.) apart. The ideal distance between the rods is twice the
rod length.
2 Pour a solution of magnesium sulfate or copper sulfate around each rod to
reduce resistance to earth ground.
3 Test the ground rods using a ground resistance tester specifically designed for
that purpose.
NOTE: Do not use a common ohmmeter.
4 After verifying that a good earth ground has been achieved, connect the rods
together using solid copper straps at least 76 mm (3 in.) wide and
approximately 0.9 to 1.3 mm (0.05 in.) thick, keeping the strap as short as
possible.
NOTE: Do not use braided wire. Use a solid copper strap.
2.6 Handheld Remote Controller
The Handheld Remote Controller (PN 782-900-017) provides the capability of
adjusting output power remotely when SQC-310 is in Manual mode.
Figure 2-5 Handheld Remote Controller
To install the Handheld Remote Controller, attach the cable from the Handheld
Remote Controller to the Remote Jack on the SQC-310 front panel.
The front panel control knob or the Handheld Remote Controller can be used to
increase (↑) or decrease (↓) output power. Pressing Abort on the Handheld
Remote Controller stops the layer and returns output power to 0%.
