Eon-LT™has been designed so that ONLY the correct hardware can be
plugged into the appropriate input or output. The following is a guideline on
how hardware should be connected in order to prevent damage to Eon-LT™.
2.1 Connecting Output
The Eon-LT™utilizes one (1) output. Make sure the correct hardware
is used with this output.
2.1.1 DB9 Connector
Connects the two SPST relays and two source outputs.
2.0 Connecting Inputs
The Eon-LT™utilizes four (4) inputs. Make sure the correct hardware
is used with these inputs.
2.0.1 Power
Only the provided power supply should be used with Eon-LT™.
Not doing so will cause hardware damage to Eon-LT™that will
not be covered by warranty. Ensure that the power supply has a
24 VDC.
2.0.2 ComPort
Connect an RS232 cable to this port. Always use the provided
USB to RS232 cable.
2.0.3 BNC
Eon-LT™has a built in oscillator. (Colnatec also offers an
external oscillator for purchase). The cable between Eon-LT™
and the crystal should remain as short as possible to avoid
noise. The advisable maximum acceptable length for this is one
(1) foot or 30 cm.
2.0.4 TC Connection
Eon-LT™uses a thermocouple probe to measure the
temperature of the sensor head.
