Operation

Insert the power cord into the power entry module at the rear of the illuminator. Next, insert the power

cord into a 3 wire grounded AC power receptacle. Use only approved power cord supplied with the
illuminator.

Press the ON(1)/OFF(0) rocker switch on the front panel to ON(1). The illuminator will light and is ready
for service.

Lamp Intensity Control:

All the DC950 series illuminators are equipped with a front panel manual solid state intensity control

and an external interface (9-pin, D style connector) for remote intensity control via a 0-5 VDC signal on
the back panel.

Manual:

The illuminator intensity is controlled by the rotary control located on the front panel of the

illuminator. The 0 position (when control is turned fully counter-clockwise) corresponds to the lowest
illuminator intensity. The 100 position (when control is turned fully clockwise) corresponds to the highest
illuminator intensity.

NOTE: Continuous operation of the illuminator at the highest intensity level will yield rated lamp life.

Operating the illuminator at reduced intensity can result in significantly extended lamp life.

Remote Interface:

The DC950 has been supplied with a filtered 9 position D-Sub connector to reduce noise that might occur
when connecting external equipment to the remote interface. Removal of this connector is not recommended
as undesired noise may occur on connections to the remote interface.

To enable the remote interface, move the LOCAL/REMOTE, located on the rear panel of unit, to the
REMOTE position. When the switch is in the REMOTE position the front panel intensity control is not
active. See Fig. 1 for the Pin Functions on the 9 Pin D-Sub connector

.

If the Remote Intensity Control Pin is

not connected, the illuminator will run at the maximum intensity setting until the Remote Intensity Control
Pin is connected.
