  • Page 10 The AURA Light Engine may be configured for light delivery via a liquid light guide (Figure 3) or an SMA-terminated optical fiber. The output couplers are built into the light engine front panel and are not field-exchangeable.
  • Page 11 Customers planning to connect multiple Light Engine remote interlocks together will need to contact Lumencor prior to integration. INTERCONNECTING LIGHT ENGINES OR USING THE REMOTE INTERLOCK INCORRECTLY CAN RESULT IN ANOMALOUS BEHAVIOR AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCTS. AVERTISSEMENT : Le verrouillage à distance repose sur un circuit de continuité passif pour un fonctionnement correct.
  • Page 12 SMA-terminated optical fiber, connect the fiber to the output adapter using the integral threaded sleeve. 2 To enable light output of the AURA Light Engine the external gate jumper, control key, remote interlock jumper, and Liquid light guide must be inserted.
