3.2.2 Connecting the power supply
The power is supplied with the aid of the enclosed plug-in power pack. The
power pack supplies the photometer with low voltage (12 VDC).
Caution
The line voltage of the usage location must fulfill the specifications
stated on the power pack (the specifications are also given in chapter 7
T
ECHNICAL DATA). Always use the supplied 12 V original power pack
only.
Connecting the
plug-in power pack
Operation with a
mobile 12 V power
source
You can also operate the photoLab
®
6100 VIS on the move and independent
of the local power supply.
To do so, a 12 V power supply such as a commercial 12 V portable power
source or a 12 V car battery and the Car Adapter photoLab
®
6xxx available
as an accessory is required (see section 8.1).
More details on operation are given:
z in section 3.3.6 and
z with the Car Adapter photoLab
®
6xxx.
1 Connect the miniplug of the power
pack to the socket (1) of the
photometer.
2 Connect the power pack to an
easily accessible power socket.
The display illumination switches
itself on and then off again.
