the steady state voltage present at the time the transient is
executed.
Final V
Final voltage value. This is the voltage present at the end of
the transient delay. For voltage steps, this field is disabled
since the Final V would be identical to the Goto V value
anyway.
Goto F
Initial frequency value. For transients that affect frequency,
this value will take effect as soon as the register is recalled.
For frequency sweeps, the Goto F value reflects the start
value. For frequency steps, this value is the value set at the
output when the transient register is executed. For
Frequency Sag/Surge transients, the Goto F is the value the
frequency will be at for the time period specified in the Delay
field. Whether it represents a sag or a surge will depend on
the steady state frequency present at the time the transient
is executed.
Final F
Final frequency value. This is the frequency present at the
end of the transient delay. For frequency steps, this field is
disabled since the Final F would be identical to the Goto F
value anyway.
Start ø
Start angle of transient execution. This value reflects the
phase angle at which the transient will start. Phase angle
fields are optional. If no phase angle is specified, the
transient will start at a random phase angle.
Delay (s)
The delay field reflects the amount of final delay after a step
or drop transient. For sweep transients, the delay reflects
the total sweep time. (duration)
Link to:
The link field allows linking to other transient registers. Any
register can be linked to any other register including itself.
This allows lists of transients or a loop of one or more
transient registers to be executed.
