**If the input signals are not within their valid range, or if left unconnected, the power supply will use
50 % amplitude and zero frequency offset, respectively.
18 Input Analog Frequency Offset 1 V to + 9 V (5 V is zero offset)**
24 Output Analog Power Out 0 V to + 10 V (0 % to 100 %)
25 Output Analog Amplitude Out 0 V to + 10 V (0 % to 100 %)

Typical Analog I/O Wiring Examples:
Test the Equipment
To test the power supply for proper operation, follow the steps listed below:
• Ensure that no one is in contact with the horn when testing the power supply
• Do not cycle the welding system if either the RF cable or converter is disconnected
1. Ensure the power supply is properly connected, as indicated in Section “Connect
the Power Supply” on page 1.
2. Wire the necessary I/O signals as shown or similar to the following diagram:
3. Turn on the power supply. The front panel Power and 24 V LEDs should turn on.
Ready Signal should become active. To avoid a power-on alarm, ensure 230VAC
are present for at least 1 second before supplying the 24VDC.
4. Send an External Start signal for 1-2 seconds. The Sonics Active output will become
active while the External Start signal is present. If the General Alarm output does not
become active, the test procedure is finished.
5. If the General Alarm output becomes active, send an External Reset signal and
repeat step 2 one time only. If the alarm persists consult your power supply manual.
