Baud Rate Default; Inspecting And Unpacking - MKS Spectra-Physics Pre-Installation Manual

Baud Rate Default

The default baud rate is 19200. The GUI auto detects the rate, and will not run at any lower than 19200.

If you are having problems communicating with the laser, check the baud rate by turning the front panel

key switch. The system shows where the baud rate is currently set.

Before You Begin

Before unpacking, setting up, or operating the Quasar laser or any of its components, review the

safety information in Chapter 2, "Laser Safety and Compliance."

Inspecting the Shipment

Your Quasar laser was packed with great care and its container was inspected prior to shipment—

it left Spectra-Physics in good condition. Upon receiving your system, immediately inspect the

outside of the shipping container. If there is any major damage (holes in the container, crushing,

etc.), insist that a representative of the carrier be present when you unpack the contents.

The three components of the Quasar system—the Quasar laser head, the Quasar power supply

(QPS), and the optional chiller—are shipped in separate crates.

The system is delivered in two crates (three if a chiller is ordered). Ensure you have enough space

in a clean environment to unpack the laser. Save all packaging material so if it becomes necessary

to return the laser it can be shipped in the proper containers.

System Components

Crate 1:

Power supply and accessory kit; includes all cables, power cords, keys, interlocks, and

any optional items like hoses and fittings

Crate 2:

Chiller (optional); includes Nalco, hoses, and AC power cords

Crate 3:

Laser head

NOTE:

The standard shipping configuration is with the exoskeleton installed. If lifting handles are

ordered they are mounted to the laser for shipment. If the optional shutter is ordered it is also

installed on the laser.

If the optional chiller is not ordered, and hoses are ordered they will be packaged with the Quasar

Power Supply.
