System Parameter Settings
The APS-1000 front panel displays are used to present status, test data, and system
parameters. This is the normal mode of display during operation. However, setting
system parameters requires a special operator-selected mode (described below).
System parameters are persistent. This means the system parameters are in effect
regardless of whether you are operating the system manually, running from stored
programs, or even powering up after the system has been shut down.
Entering the System Parameter Setting Mode
To enter the System Parameter Setting Mode, begin from the RESET (Standby) mode.
Press the SYSTEM button (on the CURRENT display). The SYSTEM LED (above
the SYSTEM switch) lights up. System Parameters are shown in the FREQUENCY
and VOLTAGE displays. The present status and values are shown in the CURRENT
display (see page 4-12 for details).
Press the VOLTAGE
︿
or
﹀
buttons to select parameters for adjustment.
Press the CURRENT
︿
or
﹀
buttons to set status and values for each item.
A table of parameters and values is shown in the next section. Following the table, you
will find a set of detailed instructions for entering each system parameter.
Sequence of System Parameters
The System Parameter items are displayed in the following order:
PLC Remote
Auto Voltage Adjust
Power-Up
Frequency Hi-Limit
Frequency Low-Limit
Voltage Hi-Limit
Voltage Low-Limit
Over-Current Foldback
After the last item appears, the system cycles back to the first item on the list. When
you have finished entering the System Parameters, press SYSTEM (on the CURRENT
Display), to exit the System Parameter Setting mode.
