7. Alternately, connect user’s control system to the I/O interface connector. See "Signal Connections"
below.
8. If using the optional RS-485 interface, connect the host computer to the RS-485 connector on the
Power Supply Controller.
9. Connect the host computer to the Monochromator control connector on the Lamp House using a
suitable USB cable.
10. Connect the external Monochromator power supply to the Monochromator power supply connector on
the Lamp House.
11. Connect AC input power source to the Power Supply Controller.
The system is now ready to operate.
4.3. Chiller Information
The system must be connected to a cooling system. See Section 8 for information on the recommended
chiller.
5. TLS-EQ-77H Operation
5.1. Startup
Once the lamp is set up properly, verify that all personnel that will be in contact with the lamp system are
aware of the potential hazards involved. It is the responsibility of the user to verify that the lamp is being
used safely.
This example assumes the use of the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module to provide local control. If using a
custom control system, substitute the appropriate digital input and output lines from Section 10.3 for the
switches and LEDs described below.
1. With the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module connected properly, review the status LEDs on the
Power Supply Controller. The POWER ON LED should be lit, and neither the CONTROLLER
FAULT nor LAMP MODULE FAULT LEDs should be lit.
2. Turn on the OPERATE Switch (place switch in UP position).
3. Within several seconds the LASER ON LED will light. Laser light is now present in the Lamp
House.
4. In approximately 20-150 seconds the igniter will be turned on automatically and the plasma will
ignite. The LAMP ON LED will be lit. The duration of the warm up time (20-150 seconds) will
depend on the temperature and previous operating condition of the EQ-77. The EQ-77 will
automatically detect when the unit has reached the optimum conditions for ignition.
5. If a bulb fails to ignite within 150 seconds after the OPERATE switch was activated, the LASER
ON LED will go out, the LAMP FAULT LED will be lit, and LAMP ON LED will remain off. This is
very unusual. However, if this occurs, turn the OPERATE switch to the OFF position (down) and
begin at Step 1 again. If this occurs multiple times, contact Energetiq.
