6.7.1.2 Voltage Range
The Range soft keys offers 3 selections, 150,
300 or AUTO. There are 2 voltage ranges, 300
and 150. The 300 range supports AC voltage
output to 300Vac RMS or DC voltage to
424Vdc. The 150 range supports AC voltage
output to 150Vac RMS or DC voltage to
212Vdc. Regardless of coupling mode, the
range indication remains 150 or 300.
Selecting AUTO range means the power
source will switch between high or low range
automatically depending on the programmed
voltage value for Vac and/or Vdc.
Note:
Using AUTO ranging means the power source will have to drop the output for a
short period of time as it performs the range change. Thus, in AUTO range mode,
the output will be interrupted for about 300 msecs during a range change. If a load
is connected, it will turn off until the relay is closed again and output voltage is
restored. To prevent this from happening, use either 150 or 300 range setting
instead.
The selected voltage range is always shown on the left hand side of the status bar at the
bottom of each screen. Displayed values are either 150V, 300V or AUTO.
6.7.1.3 Waveform Preview
There are 2 available waveform groups called A and B respectively. Both groups contain the
following standard waveforms:
Sinusoidal (SINE), Square Wave (SQUARE), Clipped Sine (CSINE), 30 fixed predefined
waveforms (FIXED) and six user defined waveforms (USER).
Touch the Waveform A or Waveform B field to change the selected waveform. A list of
available selections including USER will be shown. (See screen above). Use the shuttle or
touch screen to pick one of the available waveforms.
