System Setup
To minimize risk to users or to system equipment, turn the system OFF before any cables
are connected or disconnected.
Introduction
A PhotonMAX ™ camera system consists of four hardware components:
•
Camera
•
Power supply (or a CoolCUBE coolant circulator for liquid-cooled versions)
•
PCI card
•
Cables: DATA, I/O (optional), and Power
All of the components and cables required for your configuration should be included with
your shipment. Your PhotonMAX system has been specially configured and calibrated to
match the camera and readout rate options specified at the time of purchase. The CCD
and coating you ordered has been installed in your camera head.
Keep all the original packing materials so you can safely ship the PhotonMAX system to
another location or return it for service if necessary. If you have any difficulty with any
step of the instructions, call Princeton Instruments Customer Support. For contact
information, refer to page 94.
Hardware installation consists of:
•
Installing an interface card.
•
Attaching a lens to a C-mount on the camera or to a C- to F-mount adapter.
•
Connecting the camera to an external shutter, if one is required.
•
Mounting the camera to a spectrometer (for spectroscopy applications).
•
Software installation depends on the application software you will be using to run
the system. Refer to the manual supplied with the software for information about
installing and setting it up.
Unpacking the System
During the unpacking, check the system components for possible signs of shipping
damage. If there are any, notify Princeton Instruments and file a claim with the carrier. If
damage is not apparent but camera or controller specifications cannot be achieved,
internal damage may have occurred in shipment. Please save the original packing
materials so you can safely ship the camera system to another location or return it to
Princeton Instruments for repairs if necessary.
