The MX001 box contains a power line TRIAC that acts as an electronic power
output switch operated by the scanner and capable of controlling a current load
of 6 amps in the USA. In Europe, the maximum current load supported is 5
Amps. The TRIAC controlled output voltage equals the line input voltage when
the scanner activates the TRIAC. How the TRIAC will operate is defined by the
HoloSet Program.
1. Make sure power is not being applied to the unit.
2. Open the terminals in the TRIAC terminal block by turning each screw
counterclockwise until there is enough space to insert wires.
3. Strip off 1 ¾ inches of the power output cable’s outer jacket.
4. Strip the insulation off each cable wire ¼ of an inch.
5. Feed the power output cable through the second large strain relief.
6. Connect each wire to the appropriate locations noted in the table below and
secure the wires in the terminal block and protective earthing terminal by
turning each screw clockwise. (Refer to the MX001 box or to figure 5 for the
order of the terminals for the TRIAC wires.)
Note: Do not connect any wires to the fourth terminal.
