If the light is not on when the pilot lamp (Item 5 in Figure 6-1) is on, 
check for an open switch (door switch, blower switch, or exhaust stack 

switch) in the interlock circuit. 

5.  If Automation Control is not used, set DC Power ON/OFF switch to ON position. 

If Automation Control (automatic remote control) is used, leave AC ON/OFF switch in 

OFF position.  Lamp operation is controlled by automation relay.  If this relay 
malfunctions, the lamp can be ignited by setting DC Power ON/OFF Switch to ON. 

6.  Verify that douser handle (Item 15 in Figure 4-1) is closed (in UP position). 
7.  Turn DC Power ON/OFF Switch to ON position.  Lamp will ignite automatically.  If 

lamp does not ignite, momentarily press the Manual Start Button (Item 8 in Figure A-1) 
to strike lamp. 

8.  Check ammeter reading and verify that rated lamp current is not exceeded.   

 

WARNING 

Do not allow the current to exceed the rated maximum lamp current or 

be any lower than 10% of that value. 

9.  If current is too high or too low, use tap switch to adjust power supply to proper current.  

If, after ten-minute warm-up period, correct current cannot be obtained with tap switch: 
a)  Turn unit off. 
b)  Turn off AC at the building panel. 
c)  Open left side door of console. 
d)  Change Hi-Lo links (see Item 6 in Figure 2-1) as necessary. 

 

WARNING 

Turn the DC Power ON/OFF Switch to OFF before rotating the tap 
switch. 

10. Extinguish lamp by turning DC Power ON/OFF switch to OFF position.  

 

WARNING 

Do not service the power supply until it has been turned off for at least 

two (2) minutes.  This allows the capacitors to discharge.
