EMSense 10/40 Individual Parts EMSense 10 E-field sensor (with fixed fiber cables): Electric field sensors to be used together with the plug-in card including small probe stand. Model: 7007-201 • Part Number: 1710780 • EMSense 40 E-field sensor (with fixed fiber cables): Electric field sensors to be used together with the plug-in card including small probe stand. -
Page 15: Fiber Optic Cables
Fiber Optic Cables Use an extension fiber to connect the sensor to the plug-in card mounted in the EMCenter. This extension fiber is a duplex fiber cable and uses dissimilar connectors to avoid incorrect connections. The fiber optic cable with FC connectors feeds LASER light to the field sensor. The fiber optic cable with ST connectors is used for bi-directional data communication between the field sensor and the plug-in card. -
Page 16: Processor Requirement
Processor Requirement Note: The 2-slot and 7-slot EMCenter require an ARM processor board with firmware version 3.3.3 or higher to operate the EMSense 10/40 field probes and interface card. 2-slot and 7-slot EMCenter systems utilizing an X86 processor board and/or firmware version 3.3.0 or older are not supported and will not communicate with the EMSense interface card. -
Page 17: Operation
Operation Installation CAUTION: Before connecting any components, follow the safety information in the ETS-Lindgren Product Information Bulletin included with your shipment. WARNING: Always unplug the unit before starting maintenance to prevent electrical shock. Maintenance includes removal of the plug-in cards or the top panel. - Page 18 6. Plug the interlock into the connector on the back of the EMCenter. 7. Connect the plug-in card to the desired device(s). Place the EMSense 10 E-field sensor where the field strength is to be measured. Clean the ends of the fibers and connect the cables to both the sensor and the plug-in card.

Page 19: Probe Stand
Probe Stand The EMSense 10 is supplied with a probe stand consisting of the following parts: a base, the feet (in three pcs), a pole, and an angle mount. The probe stand parts can be easily assembled together. The 3 feet can be screwed into the side of the base. -
Page 20: Laser Safety
The use of the mounting angle is optional. For isotropic measurements of an electrical field of which the polarization is unknown (for example in reverb chamber / mode-stir chambers) the mounting angle is not needed, see left picture. For accurate measurements of electrical field with a known polarization, the mounting angle can be used to position one axis of the EMSense 10 parallel to the field. -

Page 22: Activate Laser Code
To make the EMCenter as safe as possible, the primary safety system of each plug-in card is designed to work standalone, without any intervention from the EMCenter. Apart from this, the EMCenter has its own safety interlock system, which is connected in series with the interlock system of every installed card. - Page 23 If the activation process is interrupted (and released ‘Start’ button by accident), • the laser will not be activated. • The user is warned by an audible warning when the start button is pressed by accident (i.e. without the intention to activate the laser). To prevent accidental activation of the laser, an auditory warning will alert you of •...
- Page 24 Precaution for 2-slot and 7-slot EMCenter As a safety precaution, products that use a LASER can only be turned on using a LASER Code. This code can be entered into the system by use of the touchscreen of the EMCenter. (This safety feature is linked to the EMCenter 2-slot and 7-slot version.
- Page 25 To change the laser code, the user will be asked to enter the current code once and the new code twice (for confirmation). Press ‘Close’ to leave each notification and enter the code in the following numeric window. The probe stand parts can be easily assembled together. The 3 feet can be screwed into the side of the base.

Page 27: Touchscreen
Touchscreen Home Screen Readings from the probe can be taken directly from the 2-slot or 7-slot EMCenter screen. The status box tells you the Etot value in V/m. The ‘STATUS’ box in the main screen of the EMCenter only displays the total isotropic field strength. - Page 28 Starting the LASER Powered Sensor The LASER of the EMSense 10 field sensor can be started from the ‘main’ window of the EMCenter. To activate the sensor, press the ‘Start’ button for the required sensor and, within 4 seconds, the ‘ACK’ button. A short sound will be audible until the safety loop is closed successfully.
- Page 29 Zeroing the Probe The ‘STATUS’ box will now indicate “Press this button to zero” and after pressing this button the zeroing of the probe will be started. As soon as the probe is zeroed, the ‘STATUS’ box will display the measured field strength of the probe.
- Page 30 EMControl Instrument Screen This page shows the Probe Configuration and Advanced Measurement Data of the EMSense 10 probe. The ‘‘Instrument’-screen will display the field strength in a large font, together with the field strength data of each separate axis. In addition; probe information and LASER information are also displayed in the ‘Instrument’-screen.
