Do not operate the system if either ORPHEUS or the pump laser is not fixed to the optical table. This
could lead to dangerous misalignment of ORPHEUS and damage of internal components.
4.3 Beam Routing Units
Depending on the model of the pump laser and system layout, it may be necessary to use periscopes,
beam splitters (BS) and/or beam routing mirrors (BRM) to deliver the pump beam into ORPHEUS. Optical
components of these items are put in metal enclosures designed for safety and stability. These enclosures
are prepared for specific beam heights but are flexible in terms of system layout.
Tuning the angle of the mirrors is done by micrometer screws accessible with a 2 mm hex key,
location of the screws is shown in Figure 8. It is recommended to use only vertical and horizontal screws for
alignment (not diagonal). Depending on the model of the units, the position can be locked by tightening the
locking screws.

The periscope consists of two mirrors and only the top mirror is coarsely adjustable. This mirror
should be only adjusted once during the installation to keep the beam parallel to the optical table.
All enclosed beam routing units, periscope, and shutter are interconnected with hollow tubes to fully
enclose the beam path. This is necessary to ensure user safety and stability of the OPA output.
4.4 Connecting ORPHEUS
ORPHEUS needs to be connected to the power supply and to a computer to operate. Additionally, if
the system is supplied with water cooled beam dumps, water supply must be connected to the device. If
water is not available, beam dumps must be replaced with air-cooled alternatives.
ORPHEUS has three connection panels (Figure 9). The panel of the main circuit board for the power
supply and USB connection (Figure 10) is located on the side of ORPHEUS body. Shutter connector is
located on the front side. The connectors (extension plate) for external devices are located on the back
