1.7
Power Connections
Power connections are made to the dc power supply using the supplied Hirose 2-pin plug and
24" pig-tail cable assembly. The optimum input voltage for full performance is 6 Volts at
~600mA maximum (less current if only using one source). The red wire is the positive input and
correct polarity is required. The 5009 is reverse polarity protected and no damage will occur if
reverse connected to dc power supplies of less than 15V. There is no provision for power to be
supplied by USB.
1.8
RoHS (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances)
The 5009 module is manufactured using all RoHS compliant components and RoHS compliant
printed circuit board processing. The case is manufactured using only aluminum with steel
fasteners.
Valon Technology, LLC certifies that the 5009 is RoHS compliant and conforms with the
requirements of EC directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS) by having no intentional addition of Lead (Pb),
Cadmium (Cd), Mercury (Hg), Hexavalent Chromium (Cr), Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB),
Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE), and any trace impurities of these substances are below
the threshold limits as specified by the RoHS directive, specifically Cr+6, Hg, Pb, PBB, PBDE do
not exceed 1000 ppm (0.1%) and Cd does not exceed 100 ppm (0.01%).
1.9
FCC Part 15
The 5009 is considered an industrial component and is intended to be incorporated into
customer supplied equipment and is therefore exempt from FCC Part 15.
1.10
Default Frequency Setting
The table in section 2 shows the default settings.
1.11
Cleans Function (Sanitize)
The Cleans function (or sanitize) completely erases all stored user entries including frequency
settings, LIST settings, and Sweep Start and Stop settings and restores the default frequencies.
The Cleans function can be set by selecting Cleans from the Configuration Manager drop down
Synthesizer
menu tab, or in the case where no serial interface is available, the input voltage can
be raised to 10.0V for >4 seconds.
1.12
Place of Manufacture
The Valon 5009 printed circuit boards are fabricated and assembled in Northern California. All
components are sourced from U.S.A. vendors and distributors. Final assembly and test is
performed at Valon Technology.
