Circuit and Connections EEA-PAM-5**-B- Shown with command logic module. Individual ramp adjustments of spool acceleration and deceleration, independent of direction of movement, are on the base amplifier. Additionally, acceleration and deceleration can be controlled by variable voltage inputs to pins d6 and d8 respectively. The circuit here includes the essential characteristics of all amplifiers listed in the Model Codes section, two pages back; actual amplifiers omit certain sub-circuits to those connection pins not needed for the valves concerned.

For effective protection, the user s electrical cabinet, the valve subplate or manifold and the cable screens should be connected to efficient earth (ground) points. The metal 7-pin connector part no. 999 should be used for the integral amplifier. In all cases, both valve and cable should be kept as far away as possible from any source of electromagnetic radiation such as cables carrying heavy current, relays and certain kinds of portable radio transmitters, etc. Difficult environments could mean that extra screening may be necessary to avoid the interference. 5
