· laser diode's wavelength tuning by regulating the temperature · modulation of wavelength by tuning the temperature The TED200C is easy to operate via the operating elements on the front panel. Operating parameters are shown on a 5-digit LED display. UP-DOWN keys allow to select the parameter to be displayed.
If necessary, ask for a replacement package. Prior to apply power to the TED200C controller, make sure that the protective conductor of the 3 conductor mains power cord is correctly connected to the protective earth contact of the...

LM135 and LM335) as temperature sensor, 5-digit LED-display Shielded cable: CAB420-15 Cable to connect the temperature controller TED200C to a Thorlabs Laser Diode Mount. Note The cable should not be manipulated as it serves multiple devices and therefore does not have the standard pin assignment as described for TED200C.
3. 1 operation manual 4. 1 connection cable CAB420-15 2.2 Preparation Prior to operate a TED200C controller, check if the set line voltage matches with your local power supply and if the appropriate fuses are inserted. (See sections Line Voltage Setting Replacing the Mains Fuses Connect the unit to the power line using the supplied cable.
By using F17 and F18 keys, the displayed measurement value can be selected. A TED200C controller is immediately ready to use after turning on. The rated accuracy is reached, however, after a warming-up time of approx. 10 minutes.
TED200C. If a Thorlabs laser mount TCLDM9 or LDM21 is used, in addition the polarity of laser diode and photodiode must be set using the two slide switches at the laser mount. Please refer to the individual operation manual of the laser diode mount.
· Switch the display to "T " and set the desired set temperature using the tuning knob. · By pressing the key "ON" switch on the TED200C output current. The LED "ON" (F8) lights up. · Switch the LED display to "T ".
. The polarity is not relevant, so far the thermistor is floating. If one pin of the thermistor is grounded (for example in a laser module), this pin has to be connected to pin3. If the TED200C is operated with a thermistor temperature sensor, the "T " and "T "...
" can be tuned by applying a voltage to the input "TUNE IN" (R1) at the rear panel of the TED200C. The temperature set value is proportional to the sum of the signal at input "TUNE IN" (R1) and of the value set with the adjustment knob (F10).
3 Operating Instruction 3.2 Operation · Connect the jack "TE OUTPUT" (R5) at the rear panel of the TED200C to the input "TEC DRIVER" of the Thorlabs Laser Diode Mount using the supplied cable CAB420-15. If a different laser diode fixtures is used, the output jack “TE OUTPUT” (R5) must be connected...
All Thorlabs’ temperature controllers provide a PID control loop whose shares (P, I and D share) must be matched with the thermal load of the device under test.
3.2.3 Over-Temperature Protection The TED200C controllers come with an internal over-temperature protection. If the internal heat sink is overheated, the output of the controller is disabled automatically. The LED "OTP" (F5) lights up and a short beep is heard.
A mild 75% Isopropyl Alcohol solution can be used for more efficient cleaning. TED200C Controllers do not contain any modules and/or components that could be repaired by the user himself. If a malfunction occurs, please contact Thorlabs for return instructions.
Attention To avoid risk of fire only the appropriate fuses for the corresponding line voltage must be used 1. Turn off the TED200C and disconnect the mains cable. 2. The fuse holder (R10) is located below the 3-pole power connector of the mains jack (R8). Release the fuse holder by pressing its plastic retainers with the aid of a small screwdriver.
§ Set the P share, D share and I share appropriate to the thermal load q The unit switches on, but display shows error message (e.g., “Err06”) o This indicates a malfunction of the TED200C. In such case, the controller needs to be returned to Thorlabs for maintenance. Please contact...
Thorlabs warrants material and production of the TED200C for a period of 24 months starting with the date of shipment. During this warranty period Thorlabs will see to defaults by repair or by exchange if these are entitled to warranty.
