XTC/3 Operating Manual
2.3 Connecting the Controller
The operation of the XTC/3 depends on the proper connection of power and signal
interfaces to owner equipment and sources.
2.3.1 Verifying the Correct Input Voltage
WARNING - Risk Of Electric Shock
XTC/3 has line voltage present on the primary circuits
whenever it is plugged into a main power source.
Never remove the covers from XTC/3 during
normal operation.
There are no operator serviceable items within XTC/3.
Removal of the top or bottom covers must be done only
by a qualified personnel.
XTC/3 is powered by AC line current. The acceptable voltage input ranges and the
fuse rating and type are shown in
.
2.3.2 Routing Oscillator (XIU) Cables
The signals traveling on this cable are both analog and digital. Do not route this
cable near areas with high levels of electromagnetic interference, even if its length
must be somewhat increased.
2.3.3 Interface Cable Fabrication and Pin-Out
It is necessary to fabricate several cables in order to interface the controller to the
deposition system. Refer to
section 2.2.3, Minimizing Noise Pickup from External
2.3.3.1 Source Control Connection
Two BNC connectors, labeled
Source 1
and
Source 2
, provide the analog control
voltage to your source power supply. Standard 50 ohm coaxial cables may be used.
