Installation Instructions
The FFS2001 Series workstations accept an AC input range of 85 to 265 VAC, 47-63 Hz. Internally, the power supply
senses the AC voltage being supplied and adjusts automatically.
Connect the power cord (wall cord), four-pin external DC power cable between the power supply and the
workstation, the Argon gas line, external vacuum line, and both the serial and camera PC interface cables to the
back panel.
Turn on the computer.
Start the FFS2001 Series software by selecting the FFS3 icon on the desktop.
Open argon valves at the regulator and set at 10 psi before starting the unit.
