•
Verify that there contacts are not loose or corroded.
•
If you are working with an installations that requires low impedances and
higher currents, try metal strap or stripline connections.
•
Consider the surface area and surface structure of conducting elements
(cables, vacuum feedthroughs, and electrodes) to ensure that all elements
are appropriate for the low penetration depth of RF currents.
•
Minimize the cable length between the match and load to minimize power
losses. With some applications, you may also need to optimize the cable
length between the generator and the match to achieve a stable plasma
that doesn’t flicker or flash. For more information on optimizing cable
length, see the matching network manual.
For questions about proper cable selection, contact Customer Support for the
Dressler cable selection guide.
Improper Grounding
Proper operation requires that you use a central, common ground for the
generator, matching network, and load. Ensure that you have appropriate
grounding for all elements of the system. For more information, see
and the installation section of the matching network
manual.
Improper Interface Connection
Dressler CESAR generators and Variomatch matching networks are equipped
with compatible
Matching Network
connectors. You can use this connection
to control the Variomatch unit through the CESAR generator front panel. To
troubleshoot this connection:
•
Verify that you are using the correct cable (see
for connector pin descriptions or contact Customer Support).
•
Check whether you can send basic commands to the Variomatch unit from
the CESAR unit (see
“Controlling the Matchbox” on page 5-20
switching between automatic and manual tuning modes or moving the
capacitors in manual mode.
•
Refer to the Variomatch manual for additional troubleshooting
suggestions.
If none of these procedures resolves the problem, contact Customer Support.
