The length of the output coaxial cable is 3 meters. Using the shorter coaxial
cable may result in damage to the generator.
Step 5.
Connect power supply cable to the wall power outlet.
Switch on the generator by the toggle power switch on the rear panel. The internal
fans should start to rotate.
Step 6.
Push back INT/EXT push button (if it is pressed) in INT position. Red LED on the
button should light on indicating the internal triggering mode.
Set the required frequency, the number of pulses, and the energy by the knobs. It
is clever to start the experiments with low operation parameters, which helps to
prevent possible damage to the equipment in case of any error or improper using.
Press HV ON/OFF push button. Red LED on the button would light on, and
output HV pulses would go to the output and load. Increase the amplitude and
frequency by corresponding knobs as necessary.
Step 7.
Always stop the operation of the generator by HV ON/OFF switch. After that, you
can switch off the generator by the power switch. After a long time of operation at
high pulse amplitude and frequency, please allow fans to rotate several minutes in
idle mode for cooling.
TRIGGERING OF THE GENERATOR
The generator can operate in internal and external triggering operation modes.
Internal triggering
The internal triggering mode is set when the INT/EXT button is pushed back. Red
LED on the button continuously lights on, indicating the internal triggering mode.
The external triggering pulse generator is not required, and continuous or burst
operation mode can be implemented. Output pulses repetition rate can be adjusted
by FREQUENCY regulation knob within 1 Hz … 101 kHz. Press this knob and
hold it for one second for entering into NUMBER-OF-PULSES adjusting regime.
The four-digit indicator would start to flash. Set the required number of pulses in
the burst within 1 to 10000. Press and hold the knob for one second again to return
back to FREQUENCY adjusting regime. The generator operates in burst mode if
