3. Installation

3.6Connecting the optical unit

The optical unit may be placed on the bench or mounted on laboratory scaffolding. For scaffolding mounting, mount the support rod on the optical unit. The rod may be mounted horizontally or vertically (Fig. 4:9). Tighten the the Allen screw firmly. The optical unit should be placed as close as possible to the column outlet. Connect the cable from the optical unit to the 1 l-pin socket on the back of the control unit (Fig. 6:21). The plug has a snap lock.

To remove it, squeeze the ribbed sides firmly and pull.

3.7Connecting a recorder

There is one 10 mV signal output port on the rear panel of the control unit. It is for use with GE Healthcare recorders or similar instruments. Connect the output terminals to the input of the recorder, using a signal cable (Fig. 12). Connect the shield of the signal cable to the grounded terminal port on the rear panel of the control unit. Choose the 10 mV input range on the recorder for full scale response.
