Safeguarding Units with the Interlock

EXFO’s more powerful and potentially harmful modules, such as laser
sources, are equipped with an interlock system that prevents accidental
power ups.

If your module is equipped with an interlock system, you might have to link
the terminals, located at the back of your IQS-610P-HS controller unit, with
the provided connectors.

You can connect your interlock terminals to an external safety device using
either your own connectors or the connectors provided by EXFO.

Note: If you are using shielded cables to connect your interlock terminals, use

either ground terminal to secure your connection.
