Tec Connector; Tec Grounding Considerations - ILX Lightwave LDT-5525 User Manual

2.5.2 TEC Connector

At the right of center, when facing the back panel, you will find the 15-pin D-connector for the TEC MODULE. This
connector is used for the input and output connections, as shown by the pin-out diagram of Figure 2.12.

2.5.3 TEC Grounding Considerations

The TEC outputs of the LDT-5525 are isolated from chassis ground, allowing either output terminal to be grounded at
the user's option.
NOTE - For the TEC connector, if any one terminal pin is grounded, then no other terminal pin should be grounded.
Damage to external unit or temperature controller will occur.
