1. Introduction The EQ-77 Laser Driven Light Source is a broad-band lamp system for use in a wide variety of applications. The lamp produces high brightness, broad-band light from DUV wavelengths through visible and beyond. The output is very stable, and has a long lifetime before any service is required. A simple control interface ensures ease of use.
Do not open the enclosure of either the Lamp House or the Power Supply Controller. Dangerous invisible infrared laser beams and hazardous voltages exist inside the Lamp House. Opening the chassis both voids the warranty and exposes the user to dangerous radiation and hazardous voltages. This AC cord supplied is for EQ-77 only.
CAUTION: controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. WARNING: Invisible laser radiation avoid eye or skin exposure to direct or scattered radiation Class 4 laser product Alternating current The EQ-77 is a Class 4 Laser Product. All appropriate laser safety measures should be in place before operating the system.
2.4. Labels and Safety Notification The following safety labels appear on the product. Figure 1 shows the location of each label on the EQ-77 system and Table 2 describes their meanings.

4. EQ-77 Setup 4.1. Connections Installation of the EQ-77 consists of connecting electrical, water, and purge gas supplies, and connecting the Lamp House module to the user’s equipment. Read "Installation Procedure" first before making any connections. 4.1.1 Electrical Power The EQ-77 requires 100 – 240 V~, 50/60 Hz input voltage. Power consumption is 350 W maximum during normal operation.
Hold the fitting body with one wrench. Tighten the nut with the other. Figure 4: Water fittings 4.1.4 Optical Interface See Section 10.1 for dimensional drawings of the lamp. 4.1.5 Signal Connections The EQ-77 is controlled through the remote I/O connector. Section 10.3 gives the pin assignments and functions for this interface.
PIN 3 PIN 1 Figure 1: EQ-99-RC Remote Control Rear Panel User I/O can be powered either by the EQ-77 internal isolated power supply, or an external supply. Section 10.5 shows connection schematics for both configurations. 4.1.6 Lamp House I/O The black 21-pin mixed D-sub cable is used to connect the Lamp House to the Power Supply Controller.
Setup the Lamp House unit with appropriate ultraviolet safety measures and laser light safety measures in place. It is recommended that any enclosure or aperture-blocking hardware utilize switches wired to the EQ-77 external interlock circuit. See Section 10.1 for dimensional drawings of the lamp. 3.
5.2. Stopping To turn the LAMP off, simply turn the OPERATE Switch to the OFF position. If the lamp will not be used for some time, the AC supply can be turned off. To minimize wear on the ignition components, it is best to avoid frequently starting and stopping the lamp. It is recommended to run the lamp continuously if long off-periods are not required.
See below if any problems are encountered in operating the EQ-77. Condition: Controller Fault and/or Lamp House Fault LED(s) are ON. Action: ▪ Always begin operation of the source by verifying the interlocks. ▪ Confirm that the external interlock contact is closed (or that the black jumper plug is fully inserted into the back of the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Box) ▪...
10.6. Serial Interface Commands The RS-485 serial interface is provided for user adjustment of laser operating power, in order to increase or decrease light output. The EQ-77 is shipped with the laser power set to a factory default value of 100% of full scale power.
