11.2 Using an External Shutter
WARNING! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
When using a shutter not supplied by Teledyne Princeton
Instruments, it is the responsibility of each user to assure all
connections, other than ground, to the external shutter are
insulated to prevent accidental contact by personnel.
Although not mandatory, Teledyne Princeton Instruments
strongly recommends the use of shielded cable with
braided shield between the shutter and the shutter
connector. The shield braid should be connected to the
shell of the Hirose connector in accordance with Hirose's
recommendations for connecting shield grounds.
Usually, it is best to connect the shield ground to the frame
of the external shutter, but this may vary with the
circumstances. Although the use of a braided shield
typically reduces the susceptibility of a system to
electromagnetic disturbances, this protection is not
guaranteed in all applications.
CAUTION!
!
In order to prevent potential permanent damage to either
the Lansis camera and/or the shutter, always contact
Teledyne Princeton Instruments before connecting an
external shutter. Refer to
for complete information.
