12) Front Panel AC Power Switch 

This is the front-panel AC power switch (there is a 

Rear Panel Main AC Power Switch

 as well). This switch 

must be “ON” (On = 1) for the 

UltraVolt HV Rack

®

 power supply to be functional. (Both rear- and front-panel 

AC switches must be on).   

 

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS, CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

 

 
The 

HV Rack

 system can provide up to 4 channels of high-voltage power (configurations vary). Each channel 

has an inline cooling fan and a configurable high-voltage-output connector plate. The plate is used to mount the 
high-voltage-output and high-voltage-return connectors. The actual connectors can vary and are custom 
configured for each system. A rear-panel remote/local control DIP switch can be used to enable remote control 
by transferring front-panel control and programming functions to the 37-pin ‘D’ connector on the rear panel.

2) Rear Panel Main AC Power Switch 

This is the rear-panel main AC power switch (there is a second AC power switch located on the front panel as 
well). This switch must be “ON” (On = 1) for the 

UltraVolt HV Rack

 power supply to be functional (both rear- 

and front-panel AC switches must be on).
