See the manual for your fixture for additional safety and operational information.
Selecting the Fixture
The
TECSource has integrated support for many of the mounts offered by
Arroyo Instruments, such as the 204 TEC Butterfly LaserMount . To simplify
operation when using these mounts, you can change the Mount setting in the
menu to the mount type you are using. By selecting a mount, the current limit,
temperature limits, default gain, and sensor settings are automatically adjusted
to values appropriate to the mount, and menu settings limited to the capabilities
of the mount. For example, when the 204 is selected, the
Sensor setting is
hidden from the menu, and the current limit is adjusted to the mount’s rated limit
to prevent damage to the mount’s Peltier cooler.
Adjusting the
Mount setting to User Defined removes all software limits, allowing
unrestricted operation of the TECSource .
Remote Mode Operation
Remote mode operation is when the TECSource is being controlled by a
computer over the USB or RS232 interfaces. When in remote mode, the
TECSource behaves differently, preventing you from affecting the operation of
the instrument. Some of the primary differences are you will not be able to
change the set point, you cannot enter the menu, and the knob is disabled.
You can exit remote mode at any time by pressing the MENU button, which has
a secondary function to return the
TECSource to local operation when in remote
mode.
While in remote mode, the Remote LED also acts as an activity indicator, and
will flash whenever there is communication with the computer.
Details on how to communicate with the
TECSource can be found in a separate
Computer Interfacing Manual,
which is included on the CD that accompanied
this product.
NOTE
Connections to the TECSource and the fixture must be
secure. Tighten any screws on the DB-15 connectors,
and make sure all connections are in good condition.
