2.1 Unpacking
The LAMBDA 10-B and associated hardware comes packed in a single carton. The following
is a list of the components found there. If you believe that any of these components are
missing or show obvious signs of damage from shipping, please contact the factory.
•
Optionally, one filter wheel: standalone, or mounted with a conventional shutter or
SmartShutter.
•
Optionally, one or two standalone SmartShutters or one standalone SmartShutter with a
standalone filter wheel.
•
LAMBDA 10-B controller
•
One support base for filter wheel.
•
Two support rods for filter wheel.
•
Two base clamps for filter wheel.
•
For each standalone 25mm SmartShutter, a mounting rod and base holder are included if
ordered.
•
Filter wheel to controller connecting cable (if filter wheel ordered).
1. A 15-pin cable is used for filter wheels without a shutter mounted (standalone) or
mounted with a UNIBLITZ
2. A 25-pin cable is used for filter wheels with a SmartShutter mounted.
3. If a standalone filter wheel and a standalone Smart Shutter are to be connected, the
filter wheel is connected with a 15-pin cable and the SmartShutter is connected using
one end of the split cable (25-pin split to two 9-pin cables) as described next.
•
Standalone SmartShutter(s) to controller connecting cable: If one or two standalone
SmartShutters are to be configured, then a 25-pin cable split to two 9-pin cables is
included. The 25-pin end of the cable connects to the LAMBDA 10-B controller, and the
longer 9-pin split connects to the first SmartShutter (Shutter A). If only one
SmartShutter is used, the second (shorter) 9-pin split is affixed with a terminator
(supplied with the cable). In a two-SmartShutter configuration, the second (shorter) 9-pin
split is connected to the second SmartShutter (Shutter B).

USB interface cable (optionally for connecting to a host computer for remote control).
