The following parameters are available to be programmed by the user.
Field
Description
Setting Range
Purpose
STATE
Enable the
Regenerate function
ON/OFF
This field allows the regenerative mode of operation to be
enabled. The regenerative state can only be enabled if the relay
is open and the frequency is set between 40Hz and 80 Hz. If the
state ids off the MX operates like the normal MX without the
SNK option installed. In normal mode only 20% of normal
operating current can sunk and the MX will generate errors 31
and 32.
UNDER VOLT
EUT under voltage
limit
0.0 to max V range
value
Sets the EUT shut off voltage, Active only if the dFREQ listed
below is set to zero. This is the voltage (AC or DC) at which the
EUT will shut off. If set to a value that will allow the EUT to
continue operating, the MX may be unable to limit the current
being fed back by the EUT.
OVER VOLT
EUT over voltage limit 0.0 to max V range
value
Sets the EUT over voltage limit. This is the maximum allowable
voltage (AC or DC) at which the EUT can operate. The output
voltage may be increased up to this level if the current limit is
exceeded in an effort to keep the current below the set current
limit value.
dFREQ
Delta Frequency
0.0 to 6.0 Hz
This setting determines the size of the frequency shift that will
be applied to the EUT after the current limit has been exceeded.
If set to 0.0 Hz, no frequency shift will be applied.
DELAY F*
Frequency Shift
application delay
time.
0.25 to 5.00 sec
This delay determines how long the MX waits to apply the
programmed frequency shift to the EUT after the set current
limit level has been exceeded.
DELAY R*
Output Relay Open
delay time.
0.25 to 5.00 sec
This delay determines how long the MX waits to open the
output relay after the frequency shift has been applied and the
current still exceeds the set current limit level. If the frequency
shift is set to 0.0Hz, this setting determines the time the output
relay will be opened after the UNDER VOLTAGE is applied
PREVIOUS SCREEN
Returns to previous screen.
NOTE: DELAY F and DELAY R are linked together as DELAY when entered from the front
panel.
Parameters set in the REGENERATE CONTROL screens are retained in non-volatile memory
between uses. They are NOT part of the setup registers, however. Thus, only one set of
parameters is retained reflecting the last used settings except for the STATE which is always
OFF at power up.
The same SNK parameters can also be programmed over any of the available remote control
interfaces using SCPI commands. Refer to the MX Programming Manual for details on
programming syntax.
