ENCODER INSTALLATION
MOUNTING
Rack
Requirement
The Model 720 mounts in a standard 19-inch equipment rack and
requires only 1¾ inches (1U) of vertical rack space. We recommend
plastic or fiber washers to protect the painted finish around the
mounting holes.
Heat Dissipation
Consuming less power than an electric pencil sharpener, the 720 it-
self generates negligible heat. The unit is specified for operation
within an ambient temperature range extending from freezing to
120°F/50°C. But because adjacent, less efficient equipment may ra-
diate substantial heat, be sure that the equipment rack is ade-
quately ventilated to keep its internal temperature below the speci-
fied maximum ambient.
AC (MAINS) POWER
Fuseholder
The fuseholder is at the far left of the front panel. Apply downward
pressure and pull the cap outward to access the 5mm mains fuse.
Note that the cap has space for a spare fuse as well. The cap is re-
seated by reversing the removal process. This fuse also serves as a
front-panel emergency power disconnect for the Model 720.
Mains Voltage
Selector
Unless specifically ordered for export shipment, the 720 is set at the
factory for operation from 115V, 50/60Hz AC mains. This can be
confirmed by checking the designation next to the mains connector
on the rear panel. The
inappropriate
voltage and fuse value will
have been crossed out at the factory with a black marker.
To change the mains voltage, first remove the top cover of the unit.
A clearly marked slide switch is right behind the AC mains connec-
tor on the encoder circuit board.
With power disconnected
, use a
small screwdriver to set the switch for
115VAC
or
230VAC
operation.
Be sure to install the appropriate fuse listed on the rear panel. You
can remove the factory strikethrough with some, probably carcino-
genic solvent, and then cross out the inappropriate marking with an
indelible felt pen.
Power Cord
The detachable IEC-type power cord supplied with the encoder is
fitted with a North-American-standard male plug. The individual
cord conductors may be color-coded in either of two ways:
