OPERATION


Please refer to the Model 2090 Positioning Controller manual if
you are unfamiliar with the operation of the unit. A 2090 manual is
included with each 2090 shipment and is also available for
download from our website www.ets-lindgren.com .

With the assembly complete the Model 2090 controller will need
to be connected to the unit and power applied to both the motor
base and controller in order to continue. Refer to the electrical
installation section if you have questions about how to connect the
fiber optic cables.

Using the Model 2090 Positioning Controller check the CW and
CCW rotation in both directions by a few degrees. The position in
degrees increases (+) in the CW direction and decreases (-) in
CCW direction.

The turntable is calibrated at the factory to read out 360 degrees (+
or - 1 degree) for one complete revolution. If the table is not within
this accuracy, the unit can be re-calibrated per the instructions in
the “Turntable Encoder Calibration” section.

APPLICATION OF CONDUCTIVE GREASE


Before placing an EUT on the turntable or configuring it for use.
Using the turntable controller, position the table to the 0 degrees
position. Make a straight line from the table to the flange to verify
the encoder count and positioning of table. Then start the table in
scan mode. Using a syringe, squeeze the contents of one tube of
GC Electronics conductive grease into the barrel. While table is
rotating slowly apply grease to the grounding brushes. Apply one
tube per meter size of the diameter of the table. Run table for
approximately 1 hour to validate proper operation and allow
sufficient lubrication of moving parts.
