In accordance with international safety standards, the instrument has a
three-wire power cable. When connected to an appropriate AC power
receptacle, this cable earths the instrument cabinet. The type of power
cable shipped with each instrument depends on the country of destination.
The 8166A/B Lightwave Multichannel System complies with overvoltage
category II and can operate from any single-phase AC power source that
supplies between 100 V and 240 V at a frequency in the range from 50 to
60 Hz. The maximum power consumption is 450 VA with all options
installed.
There are two input BNC connectors: the Remote Interlock Connector
and the Trigger Input, see “Input and Output Connectors” on page 310.
These are TTL inputs. A maximum of 5 V can be applied as an external
voltage to either of these input connectors.
There is one output BNC connector: the Trigger Output, see “Input and
Output Connectors” on page 310. This is a TTL output. Do not apply an
external voltage to this connector.
