procedure
1. Set the AC voltage switch on the Universal Power Supply to the correct voltage for your
country (110 V or 220 V).
Note: The default setting is 110 V.
2. Set the Polarity switch on the Universal Power Supply to the positive position.
3. Set the DC voltage switch on the Universal Power Supply to the 12 volt position.
2
Note that the DC voltage switch is continuously variable and that the voltage level labels
are approximate.
4. Plug the BB–33 Universal Power Supply into AC power. Measure the DC voltage on
the output. Adjust the DC voltage switch until a 12 VDC reading is obtained.
5. Connect the VM 3000 to Converter Cable, part number 01–050452–001, to an odd
number serial port on the VM 3000. See Figure 1.
Note 1: The even numbered ports on the VM 3000 will not work for this applica-
tion.
Note 2: The SI–3000 will not support Triton control.

6. Connect the 25–pin end of the VM 3000 to Converter Cable to the RS–422 side of the
B&B converter. (Pinouts for this cable are shown in Figure 2.)
7. Connect the 9–pin end of the Converter to Triton Cable, part number
01–050453–001, to the RS–232 port on the Triton switcher.
8. Connect the 25–pin end of the Converter to Triton Cable to the RS–232 side of the
B&B converter.
9. With the power supply disconnected from AC power, connect the DC power connector
on the Universal Power Supply to the 12 VDC connector on the B&B Electronics RS
232 / RS 422 Converter.

10. Connect the Universal Power Supply to AC power.
Note 1: A plug adapter may be required for use outside of North America.
Note 2: In redundant VM installations, remeasure the converter power supply out-
put to be sure it is at 12 volts. This is necessary because of the increased cable load-
ing.
11. The Triton hardware connection is now complete. The Jupiter configuration tables must
be modified to include the Triton switcher. Refer to the Jupiter Facility Control System
Installation and Operating manual, part number 04–045707–002, for information on
configuration for control of Triton switchers.
