Connecting
4
Locate the 5-pin terminal strip on the power supply’s input section, under the protective snap-on
cover.
5
Connect a jumper wire (16 AWG or heavier) between terminals 1 and 2.
6
Connect the AC hot wire, typically black, from your 120 VAC source to the terminal labeled “L”
(AC Line).
7
Connect the neutral wire, typically white, from your voltage source to terminal “N” (AC Neutral).
8
Connect the ground (earth) wire, typically green, from your AC voltage source to the terminal
labeled with the ground symbol.
240 VAC input operation
1
Verify that input AC power to the DC power supply is physically locked out or disconnected.
2
Locate the 30 VDC output terminals on the power supply’s output section and connect the black
(–) DC Power cable from the laser to the negative (–) output terminal.
3
Connect the red (+) DC Power cable from the laser to the positive (+) 30 VDC output terminal.
4
Locate the 5-pin terminal strip on the power supply’s input section, under the protective snap-on
cover.
5
Connect one of the two AC hot wires, typically black, from your 240 VAC source to the terminal
labeled “L” (AC Line).
6
Connect the other hot wire, typically black or red, from your voltage source to terminal “N” (AC
Neutral).
7
Connect the ground (earth) wire, typically green, from your AC voltage source to the terminal
labeled with the ground symbol.
Control connections
UC-2000 Universal Laser Controller
The operation of Series 48 lasers requires an external controller that can provide the necessary tickle and
pulse width modulated (PWM) Command signals. SYNRAD recommends the use of a UC-2000 Univer-
sal Laser Controller to generate the PWM signals that control the laser’s output power. The UC-2000
requires 15–50 VDC @ 35 mA, supplied from either its wall plug transformer or from the Auxiliary Power
connector on the side of Series 48 lasers. Refer to the UC-2000 Laser Controller Operator’s Manual for
information about UC-2000 operation.
Warning
serious
personal
injury
Always use shielded cable when connecting your PWM Command
signal source to the laser’s CTRL connections. In electrically-noisy
environments, long lengths of unshielded wire act like an antenna
and may generate enough voltage to trigger uncommanded lasing.
