The cooling control units is located in the ER, rack E3-03. It is the top crate which contains a blank, a power supply unit for 5V and ±5-15V, another blank and three control units. The following table describes the connections made to these latter three modules.
| Unit | Connector | Function |
|---|---|---|
| controller-A | connector 1 | all power supplies (statrons) DAC output control lines (except for heater element) |
| connector 2 | DAC output control line for heater | |
| connector 3 | alarms control register | |
| connector 4 | analog control signals for electronics inside magnet area | |
| controller-B | wide flatcable | currently not in use |
| narrow flatcable | RS232 interface to main computer read-out system | |
| LEMO (top) | signals from alcohol level meter and motor sensor | |
| LEMO (bottom) | interlock system connector | |
| controller-C | wide flatcable | feedthrough for statron control signals from left panel |
| Lemo-1 | stratron control line 1 (plugged directly into stratron) | |
| Lemo-2 | stratron control line 2 | |
| Lemo-3 | stratron control line 3 | |
| Lemo-4 | stratron control line 4 | |
| Lemo-5 | stratron control line 5 | |
| Lemo-6 | stratron control line 6 |
This paragraph contains some example data on the cooling powersupplies. The values are taken with the system at a stabilization temperature of 5 °C.

The interlock is a normally closed switch. The powersupply cannot be operated when this switch opens. The switch opens when
The interlock-cable is a light grey 2-pole LEMO cable connected to controller-B LEMO (bottom). The cable is labelled (about 1 m from the LEMO connector) with tape saying 'LW-cooling Interlock white=+'.
