CHAPTER 2
2. System Operation
2.1 Introduction
This chapter describes how to operate the 5600 Laser Diode Driver.
2.2 Installation
CAUTION
Although ESD protection is designed into the
5600, operation in a static-fee work area is
recommended.
2.2.1 AC Power Considerations
The 5600 can be configured to operate at a nominal line voltage of 100, 120,
220, or 240 VAC. Normally, this is done at the factory and need not be
changed before operating the instrument. However, be sure that the voltage
setting is correct on the power input module and correct fuses are installed
per section 6.2 before connecting to an AC source. The 5600 is shipped set
for 120 VAC and a caution sticker is placed on the input power connector.
CAUTION
Do not exceed 250VAC on the line input.
Do not operate with a line voltage that is not
within
±
10% of the line setting. Too low of an
input voltage may cause excessive ripple on the
DC supplies. Too high of an input voltage will
cause excessive heating.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock hazard, connect the
instrument to properly earth-grounded, 3-prong
receptacles only. Failure to observe this
precaution can result in severe injury or death.
