Running The 140Kv Pc Controller Application - MOXTEK X-ray Sources Operation Manual

Running the 140kV PC Controller Application

1. Start by ensuring the adapter board switch is in the off position
2. Connect the red cable to the adapter board, and then the 140KV source (as seen below)
3. Plug in the 12V power supply provided to both a wall outlet and the adapter board
4. Connect the provided USB cable to the adapter board, and to a PC that has the provided software installed.
5. Connect the interlock pins of the adapter board to a shielded safety interlock. It requires an
open or short condition. If the two pins are shorted together, the interlock is closed and the unit is safe to run. If the
two pins are open, or not connected to each other, the interlock is open and the unit will cease to emit any X-rays.
6. Power on the adapter board. Turn the switch from "OFF" to "ON".
7. A green light should turn on, which confirms power is being provided, and a red light, meaning the safety interlock is
closed. The unit is ready to run.
