  • Page 5 The AIM Gauge requires a 13.5 to 36 V d.c. power supply; it has a 2 to 10 V d.c. analogue output which is related to pressure. The AIM Gauge is compatible with all of the Edwards TIC (Turbo Instrument Controller), ADD (Active Digital Display) and with the appropriate versions of the Edwards AGD’s (Active Gauge Displays).
  • Page 6 D146-71-880 Issue E Note: If you use an Edwards TIC Controller, ADD Controller or AGD Display, the AIM Gauge set-point output signal is not used. Gas dependency The ionisation of the gas in the vacuum system is dependent on both the pressure and the physical properties of the gas.

Pressure measurement If you connected the AIM Gauge to an Edwards Controller, the pressure measured by the AIM Gauge is shown on the display. If you connected the signal output of the AIM Gauge to a voltmeter, convert the measured voltage to the corresponding pressure value: for AIM-SI1 and AIM-SL1, refer to Table 2;...
  • Page 14 Set-point Note: The set-point is not used if you connect the AIM Gauge to an Edwards Controller. To adjust the voltage at which the set-point output signal goes on, turn the set-point potentiometer, which is accessible through an access hole in the end cap of the gauge: see Figure 1.
