4.1 Line Voltage Setting

The laser diode controller LDC2xxC operates at fixed line voltages of
100 V +15% / -10% ( 90 V ... 115 V)
115 V +15% / -10% (104 V ... 132 V)
230 V +15% / -10% (207 V ... 264 V)
line frequency 50 ... 60 Hz.
The line voltage setting can be changed from the rear without opening the unit.
voltage marking must be visible in the cutout (R12) of the fuse holder.
