5. Cunfigurazione è cunnessione
Follow these steps to correctly connect the High Voltage DC Converter Module Board to your system. Ensure all power is disconnected before proceeding.
5.1 Cunnessione di l'alimentazione d'entrata
The module accepts a DC input voltage between 9V and 12V. There are two methods for providing input power:
- Jack Power DC: Use a DC power adapter with a 5.5*2.1 mm plug. The plug must be inner positive and outer negative.
- Terminal Block: Connect your DC 9V-12V power supply to the designated input terminals on the green screw terminal block. Observe correct polarity.
Image 5.1: Connection diagram showing input and output terminals. The DC 9-12V input can be connected via the barrel jack (5.5*2.1mm, inner positive, outer negative) or the screw terminal block. The image also indicates the output voltage regulation potentiometer.
Image 5.2: Detailed connection diagram illustrating the input power options (DC 9-12V via barrel jack or screw terminals) and the output connections for 6.3V filament voltage, GND, and adjustable DC 150-280V. The output voltage adjustment potentiometer is also clearly marked.
5.2 Connessioni Output
The module provides two main outputs via the green screw terminal block:
- DC 150V-280V Output: Questu hè u altu voltage output, adjustable via the onboard potentiometer. Connect the anode of your Nixie or Magic Eye tube to this output.
- Uscita DC 6.3V: This output provides 6.3V for tube filaments. Connect the filament of your tube to this output.
- GND: Common ground connection for both outputs.
Ensure all connections are secure and correctly polarized before applying power.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Accensione
Once all connections are verified and secure, connect the DC 9V-12V power supply to the module. The module will immediately begin generating the output voltages.
6.2 Adjusting High Voltage Risultatu
L'altu voltage output (DC 150V-280V) is adjustable using the blue potentiometer located on the board. Use a small screwdriver to carefully turn the potentiometer:
- Turnendu in senso orario vuluntà cresce l'output voltage.
- Turnendu in sensu antiurariu vuluntà diminuite l'output voltage.
Always use a multimeter to measure the output voltage while adjusting to prevent over-voltage damage to your connected components.
