Electrical Cable Hookup
The SC-5500 instrument delivery includes only a single power cord. Cable connection to periph-
eral components depends on the configuration of the integrating sphere system. If you purchase
a complete system from Labsphere, the necessary cabling may be packaged with other compo-
nents.
1. The SC-5500 will operate by computer control, either RS232C or IEEE-488, or as
a stand-alone unit. If you decide to use the RS-232C connector, you will need a null
modem to reverse the RX and TX cable leads. Otherwise, you will need an IEEE-
488 cable and control board.
CAUTION:
Make all connections with the AC line power OFF.
2. Communications with the VAC-1000 Variable Attenuator Control, DM-1000
Detector Multiplexer or lamp power supply is maintained through the DB37 con-
nector on the SC-5500 rear panel. Make the cable hookup between the SC-5500
connector and the individual connectors on your peripheral instrumentation.
3. Make the detector cable hookup between your detector and the corresponding input
connector on the back panel of the SC-5500. The SC-5500 detector inputs require a
TRIAX connector. You can connect up to two different detectors to the back panel
of the SC-5500. You can monitor only one detector at a time.

the electronics rack.
