Ultrasound Output Connector
The ultrasound output connector used with all standard
generators is a high voltage (5000V) coaxial style SHV-
BNC connector. This connector provides superior shielding
of electrical noise, compared to other types of connectors.
The ultrasound output connector mates with fully shielded
coaxial ultrasound cables that are secured with a simple and
reliable quarter-turn bayonet style attachment mechanism.
Configuration Port Connector
The configuration port connector is a DB-9M (standard
D-subminiature 9 circuit male) typically used for RS-232
serial communications. This serial port (DTE) connects to a
serial port (DCE) on a computer via a standard 9 pin serial
cable. If the computer does not have a serial port, you may
use a USB-to-serial conversion cable.
This port is used for field updates to the generator firmware,
without removing the enclosure cover. This port can also be
used with a software application running on a Windows PC
to modify the factory default system settings and hardware
configurations. Contact your local sales representative for
software availability information and access to documenta-
tion that will allow you to make use of the configuration
port features.

Figure 3-12 Ultrasound Output Connector
The ultrasonic output from
this connector (that drives
the attached ultrasonic load)
is a very high AC voltage
(1200VAC). At high power levels this can
exceed 2 amperes of current and must be
securely terminated via the ultrasound cable
for safe operation. Use original equipment
ultrasound cables for safe and reliable
system operation. Improperly assembled
ultrasound cables can result in high volt-
age arcing and will destroy the ultrasound
connectors.
Do not use your generator if there is any
evidence of arcing (black carbon deposits)
on either the ultrasound output connector
or the ultrasound cable connectors.
