Operating Flowchart for 42L Series Load Modules
The flow chart on the next page shows the typical load current level and status setting
procedures of each load module within a 44M0X mainframe. Load channel numbers 1 to 4
represent modules from left to right in the mainframe respectively. If the mainframe used
has fewer than 4 slot positions, skip the corresponding module number.
•
The strings shown in the square blocks are programming commands. Please follow
the flow chart sequence for optimal and effective load settings.
•
The load mode (CC, CR, CV, CP) should be set first. For CR and CV modes, only Static
mode is available. For CC and CP modes, both Static and Dynamic modes are
available.
•
Next, choose high or Low load level and set the load levels for Static mode, or set
the six parameters for Dynamic mode.
•
The Limit key sets the GO/NG check upper and lower limits for DVM (voltage), DAM
(current), and DWM (power) respectively.
•
The system configuration settings for V-sense control, Load ON voltage, and load
OFF voltage is part of the Limit setting.
•
Other keys (Load ON/OFF, Short ON/OFF) can be controlled independently.
