1. SAFETY 1.1. Symbols Used In This Manual Important information. This label indicates important information that must be read and understood prior to operation. Warning relating to the presence of magnetic field. Warning relating to a trip hazard. Warning relating to hot surfaces. Warning relating to the potential for electrical shock.
1.2. Installation, Operation, and Service Precautions During installation or servicing this magnet must be locked out following the Lockout/Tagout procedure defined in section 1.3. Hazardous voltages are present within this product during normal operation. This equipment should never be operated with any of the covers removed or interlocks defeated.
Page 7
5. After servicing, renovation, or maintenance is complete, the area must be checked for tools, parts, removed guards, and assurance that no personnel are in the danger zone. Then the lockout or tagout will be removed by the same employee who initially locked it out so energy may be restored to the equipment.
Page 8
II. Shutdown: Know what type of energy the machine uses. Identify its potential hazards. Find the switches or other devices that control energy and need to be locked out. Let employees know that you will be locking or tagging out the equipment and why. Turn off the machine or equipment.
2. SPECIFICATIONS Electrical Power Input: 85-240VAC, 50/60Hz, 2A Control Modes Manual Control: Manual control of the DC current via the DC power supply's front panel controls Computer Control: Computer control and monitoring of the electromagnet system is provided by an internal National Instruments USB-6343 multifunction data acquisition module.
In many cases, the 5972 Magnet Control and DC power supply will be pre-installed by GMW into a 19” EIA equipment rack. If it is not, care should be taken during rack mounting to avoid personal injury or damage to the equipment.
3.3 - Electrical Connections Even if the 5972 Magnet Control was ordered as a complete system and assembled into a rack by GMW, it is still recommended to follow and verify the following section as connections may have loosened during shipment.
4.1.1 - Installing the Run Time software version 1. Insert the GMW supplied software disc in to the CD or DVD drive. 2. Run the setup.exe located in the directory \Installer\Volume. This will install both the runtime and source VIs and by default, the installer will place the files in the directory c:\program files\GMW 597X\.

4.2.4 - Local / Remote The 5972 Magnet Control software defaults to local operation. In order to control the DC power supply it must first be placed into the ‘Remote’ mode. This is done by clicking on the Local / Remote’ Control. This control will change its state depending on what mode it is in.
A General interlock input has been provided and is available for user connection. If the 5972 Magnet Control has been installed into a rack by GMW, this input will be connected to the rear door switch of the rack. Opening the rear door will open the interlock circuit and the DC power supply output will be inhibited.

To resume the DC power supply output, the 'Standby Reset' button on the front panel of the 5972 must be pressed to reset the latch. Each time the 5972 is powered 'On' the DC power supply standby is latched, requiring the 'standby Reset' to be pressed to enable the DC power supply output.

1. Prior to applying AC mains power, ensure that the DC power supply's voltage and current controls are at their minimum settings. 2. Turn on the 5972 Magnet Control and DC power supply. At this point the DC power supply output will be inhibited by the 5972 Magnet Control's interlock circuits. Set the DC power supply's VOLTAGE control to maximum.
The interface of the 5972 is accomplished utilizing a National Instruments USB-6343. A simple and easy to use LabVIEW program allows access to functions of the 5972 as well as the three axis field transducer (ordered separately), temperature monitor inputs, and the flow meter input.
7. MAINTENANCE The 5972 is designed to be as maintenance free as possible. There are no user serviceable components inside the 5972 case. Maintenance should be limited to periodically wiping the front panel down with a soft cloth. 8. ACCESSORIES GMW offers several accessories to expand upon the capabilities of the 5972 Magnet Control.
USB DAQ Connections GMW offers the National Instruments USB-6343 DAQ. This together with GMW’s Magnet Control software provides control and monitoring of the 5972 Magnet Control. Custom software may be used to control the 5972 with the USB DAQ. The tables below describe the channels used and their functions for the two different DAQ models.
