Rear Panel Description

A schematic of the rear panel of the Model 2002 control unit is shown in Figure 4.2 ( Rear Panel Figure). The transducer is connected to the control unit via an female 9-pin “D” connector on the rear panel. An I/O cable can be connected via a male 9-pin “D” connector on the rear panel. The I/O cable provides an analog output signal, a remote zero input capability, high and low alarm TTL outputs, and a + 5 VDC Power Supply Output. The I/O cable also provides an analog ground and a digital common.

4.1 Remote Zero Input

The Model 2002 can be zeroed remotely via the I/O cable using the remote zero input line. Upon setting this line to TTL low level, the instrument will set its current pressure reading to zero. A common applica- tion of this feature is to utilize a process control output from a high vacuum gauge (for example an ion gauge controller) to automatically zero the Model 2002 whenever the pressure is below the low 10-5Torr range. A Digital Common is provided on pin # 5 which can be used with relay contacts or switch contacts to remotely zero the instrument.

4.2 Analog Output

The Model 2002 provides an analog voltage output signal (0.5 VDC linear per decade) for process control and for pressure monitoring. A plot of the analog output signal as a function of pressure is shown in Figure 4.1 . Note that the output voltage is directly proportional to the pressure over each complete decade (see detailed region in Figure 4.1) and that each decade has a different linear slope.

Above an indicated pressure of 103 Torr, the analog output signal will be +5 VDC. Below the minimal displayable pressure of 1 x 10-4Torr, the analog output will be 1.0 VDC.

V =	(EXP + 6)	+	(MANT - 1)

The analog output voltage is given by the following equation:

Where EXP is equal to the exponent of the displayed pressure.

EXP = -2

MANT = 1.53

V =	(-2 + 6)		+(1.53 - 1)
		2	18

= 2 + 0.0294 = 2.0294 VDC

example: p = 1.53 x 10-2

EXP = +2

MANT = 9.87

V =	(+2 + 6)	+(9.87 - 1)
	2	18

=4 + 0.4928

=4.4928 VDC
