2.3 Transducer Installation
The transducer may be installed in any orientation. Although the transducer is rugged and will
perform well in many harsh environments, the tube should be installed in a clean and careful
manner. The tube is configured with the vacuum fitting requested. If your vacuum environment
is highly contaminated or has unique fitting requirements, a Hastings filter or special adapter may
be needed. Please contact the Hastings Instruments Sales Department for assistance in your
system configuration.

The threaded connector attaches to the transducer. A finger tight connection is adequate for
proper operation. The 9-pin male “D” connector attaches to the back panel (See Figure 4.2).
The transducer cable connects to the left hand connector when looking at the back.

The mating male plug to the I/O connector is supplied with the unit. An I/O cable can be wired
with the 9-pin female “D” connector to use the analog output, digital alarms or the remote zero
functions. The connector will accept 20 gauge or smaller wire. The pinout is shown in Figure 4.2
(back panel figure). A detailed description of these pins is given in Section 4.
2.5 Initial Operation
Upon applying power to the control unit a pressure measurement will be given in Torr for nitrogen.
However, it is recommended that the user follow the instructions for zeroing and adjusting the
output at atmospheric pressure in Section 3.4 ("Cal Mode").
