Setup the Lamp House unit with appropriate ultraviolet safety measures and laser light 

safety measures in place.  It is recommended that any enclosure or aperture-blocking 
hardware utilize switches wired to the EQ-400 remote interlock circuit.  
See drawing OTD-8159 in Appendix A for mechanical details of the Lamp House. 

3.

 

Connect the laser fiber to the Lamp House as follows: 

WARNING 

The collimator must never be detached from its mounting bracket. 

Doing so could allow dangerous invisible laser radiation to be emitted. 

a.

 

Remove plastic cap from the end of the laser collimator 

Note: always keep this cap in place when the laser fiber is 
not connected to the Lamp House. 

b.

 

Inspect collimator lens for dust or contamination 

c.

 

Insert the collimator and bracket into the socket in the Lamp House 

d.

 

Secure the bracket to the Lamp House using the four socket head screws and a 
3mm hex driver. Torque the screws to 20 in-lbs. 

4.

 

Connect  the  9-pin  D-sub  interconnect  cable  from  the  Power/Control  Unit  to  the 
Lamp House. 

5.

 

Connect nitrogen purge gas to the 4mm push-to-connect fittings on the Lamp House.   

6.

 

Connect cooling water to the 8mm Swagelok fittings on the Lamp House. 

7.

 

Connect cooling water to the 8mm push-to-connect fittings on the rear of the PCU. 

8.

 

Connect  an  interlock  switch  or  jumper  plug  (supplied)  to  the  interlock  pins  of  the 

remote I/O connector (functions as remote interlock connector).  

9.

 

If  using  remote  control  mode,  connect  user’s  control  system  to  the  remote  I/O 

connector using a suitable cable. 
Table  3  gives  the  pin  assignments  and  functions  for  the  remote  interface.  Mating 

connector  is  a  standard  high-density  15-pin  d-sub  male  (for  example,  Amp  part  no. 
748364-1 with contacts 1658670-2). 

User I/O can be powered either by the EQ-400 internal isolated power supply, or an 

external supply.  Figure 5 shows connection schematics for both configurations. 

10.

 

If  using  the  optional  RS-485  interface,  connect  the  host  computer  to  the  RS-485 
connector on the rear of the PCU.  Mating connector is a standard 9-pin female d-sub 

(for example, AMP part no. 205203-3 with contacts 1-66504-0). See Table 4 for pin 
connections. 

11.

 

Connect an AC input power source to the standard IEC 320 style inlet on the rear of 
the PCU.
