Start Up
After unpacking your unit inspect for any defects. Upon inspection if a visible defect is found, or a part
(or parts) are missing, notify Vincent Associates immediately.
Prior to the connection of input/output signals to the VLM1/VLM1B :
1. Be sure that the power supply is disconnected.
2. Set N.C./N.O. switch to the N.C. position (that is in the out position/LED built into the switch
actuator should be off when the supply is connected).
3. Connect the RED wire of the FS Shutter’s actuator coil to Terminal #1 of the SHUTTER
connector and the BROWN wire of the FS Shutter’s actuator coil to Terminal #2 of the Shutter
connector. See Figure #4 for method of inserting (connecting) the actuator coil’s wires to the
VLM1/VLM1B’s SHUTTER spring terminal block connector. If the shutter is equipped with an
electronic sync, the remaining three wires can be connected as shown in Figure #5. This figure
also shows an overview of all of the
VLM1/VLM1B ’s connections for proper operation of an FS
Shutter.
4. When using the +5V/1A power supply connect the power supply to the VLM1/VLM1B with the
USB A 2.0 to USB Micro B Cable (both are included with the VLM1). When Using a laptop or a
computer, be sure the USB port you are using can source 0.5A minimum and then using the same cable,
connect to the
VLM1 or VLM1B .
5. Plug in the power supply (If being used to power the unit.)
6. Connect an input exposure signal, +5V TTL to the input BNC, if desired – default – Active Low.
7. A push of the N.C./N.O. switch will cause the shutter to open. The switch push-button’s GREEN
LED will also illuminate indicating that a signal has been provided to the input switching
MOSFET amplifier. See
VLM1/VLM1B schematic diagram in Figure #8.
Extending the Shutter Interconnection
For those applications that require an extended interconnect length between the FS shutter and the
VLM1/VLM1B , an optional cable can be purchased, the 510FS. This cable with provide up to a 10ft
(3m) cable length between the FS Shutter and the and the VLM1 or VLM1B .
The shutter must be modified to include the -5M option. The -5M option consists of a 6-inch harness
terminated to a 5-Pin male connector added to your FS shutter. This connector will mate with the 5-Pin
Female connector on the 510FS cable. The opposite end of the 510FS contains a pigtail end that will
interconnect with the SHUTTER connector on the
VLM1/VLM1B . The pigtail wire color layout is the
same as the colors indicated in Figure #5. It is recommended that this -5M upgrade is included with the
purchase of your FS shutter.
Be sure to observe Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) anti-static unpacking
procedures when removing the VLM1/VLM1B
from the static shielding
bag. Improper handling can result in destruction of the CMOS integrated
circuits.
