MULTI GAUGE CONTROLLER INSTALLATION
2.5.2 PASSIVE CHANNELS
The passive channels connections are used to connect passive gauges with hot cathode.
7-pin UTG (Metalok Bantam) sockets are available for the passive channels.

MEASURING SIGNALS
The measuring signals, i.e. the ion currents are transferred via a coaxial cable (IG PREAMP).
Pin arrangement:
• inner conductor - signal conductor
• outer conductor – shielding
Dangerous voltage.
As soon as the emission is switched on, both connections carry hazardous
levels of voltage.
The device must be switched off before any work related to connecting a gauge
is performed. After switching off, wait approx.15 seconds before starting the
work.
