AC Line Power Input
The FPM-8200 meter must be connected to a properly rated AC source in order to
operate. Line voltage and frequency limits are defined in Specifications on page 2.
You are responsible for ensuring the connection meets your local electrical code
requirements. In most cases, ILX Lightwave Customer Service can supply special
power cords.
To avoid electrical shock hazard, connect the FPM-8200 only to a properly earth-
grounded, 3-prong receptacle. Failure to observe this precaution can result in severe
injury or death.
If your FPM-8200 meter does not turn on (no response) with AC power applied,
make sure that AC power is available at the instrument end of the power cord:
simply plug the power cord into another working instrument. If this cord is okay,
contact ILX Lightwave Customer Service.
