    The PP860 can be mounted onto a flat surface using the threaded holes in the base, see diagram. The enclosure of the PP860 is used to dissipate power in the form of heat. For this reason the material to which the unit is attached must be suitable, preferably metallic with ability to dissipate the produced heat.

    Connections General The RS232 and trigger connections are made using D-type connectors. The power input and output connectors are The connectors are arranged as follows: 9.1.1 Trigger Inputs The trigger input connector is a 9-way D-type male. The trigger connector pinout is given below. Each input consists of a 1K resistor in series with an opto-isolating LED.
