READ THIS SECTION!

We know that some of you want to start the MDXII magnetron drive now and that you don't
feel you have the time to read the entire manual. Below is a list of manual sub-sections you
must read before getting started.
• Unit configuration
• Electrical specifications
• Setting up
• Rear panel connections
• Control panel interface
• First time operation
In addition, we recommend that you scan "Interpreting the Manual" on page 1-1. This section
explains the type conventions (what it means when a word appears in capitalized italic type,
for instance) and icon (symbol) definitions.

INTERPRETING THE MANUAL

Type Conventions

To help you quickly find what is being discussed, the manual presents certain words and
phrases in type that are different from the rest of the text. We use the following type
conventions:
• Pin and signal names appear in capitalized italics (DUTY CYCLE.A).
• Labels that are on the unit (switches, indicators, etc.) generally appear in boldface capital
letters (MODIFY).
• Functions are printed in boldface lowercase letters (analog input filtering).

Icons (Symbols)

This symbol represents important notes concerning potential harm to
people, this unit, or associated equipment. It is found whenever needed in
the manual.
