When all necessary parameters are set, it is possible to initiate signal generation with a start
button
. The same key serves for termination. When changing any parameter, it is highlighted in
red. These changes are not stored in memory. They are saved only when the generation starts, and
then the red color of changed data turns black.
For start generating, from any screen, always last saved values are used. The same applies after
power on.
In case that is needed to change other parameters of generation, which are not included in the Basic
screen of generator, it is possible to use the function keys:
F1
........... it starts and ceases signal generation
F3
........... it opens a menu of available signals
– screen “Signal Shapes”
F4
........... it opens a menu of automatic run of predefined tests
– screen “DB Measurements”
F5
........... it allows changing the settings of generator section
Exp
................. it opens Power Factor screen
3.2.1 Error in generation
When error in generation occurs, device automatically skips to Standby in corresponding channel.
Standby means that generation in particular channel is suspended. Once the error cause has been
removed, generation update is possible, usually with
F2
button. However, if voltage error occurs, it is
necessary to stop and run again the generation.
Typical situation:
current loop has been malfunctioned so the generation in respective channel is
suspended. Error (red notification in main generator screen) in given channel occurs, i.e. no current
generation in that phase, however voltage remains untouched. After current loop examination and
reparation, the generation shall be restored by
F2
.
Conclusion:
Meter remains under power (voltage) through the whole time.
