ITEM NAME FUNCTION
1 VOLTAGE Adjust Knob
Adjust the digital voltage set point in the tester.
Press the voltage knob to display the voltage set point. This setting will blink for a few seconds on the front meter.
Turn Clockwise to increase the Voltage Setting Point before pressing
CHARGE button.
2
POLARITY switch
Toggles the output pulse polarity from Normal (Positive) to Reverse (Negative).
The pulse will appear on the Output jack relative to the return jack.
The polarity switch only operates when the
CHARGE indicator is lit and the voltage on the display meter is less than 200V.
The polarity is Normal when the NOR indicator is lit and Reverse when the REV indicator is lit.
3 NOR REV indicator
This indicates the state of the Output Polarity switch.
NOR indicates Normal (Positive) position.
REV indicates Reverse (Negative) position.
4 CHARGE switch
Charge the capacitor to the voltage set point.
The
CHARGE indicator will turn off after the CHARGE switch is pressed, and the TRIGGER indicator will turn on.
5 CHARGE indicator
This yellow indicator is lit when the tester is ready to charge.
CHARGE indicator will go out after pressing CHARGE button.
CHARGE and TRIGGER Indicators will be blinking if the Interlock Switch is open.
6 TRIGGER switch
Triggers the output impulse waveform.
The impulse waveform will appear across the output leads.
7 TRIGGER indicator
This red indicator is lit to when the tester can be triggered.
TRIGGER indicator will go out after pressing TRIGGER button.
TRIGGER and CHARGE Indicators will be blinking if the Interlock Switch is open.
8 VOLTAGE meter
This meter displays the voltage on the internal high voltage capacitor.
The meter will start flashing at 5100V or above to indicate that the voltage is at the maximum limit.
Displays the output voltage set point (Blinking mode).
If the Keyboard is locked, the display will show OFF.
If the Digital Voltage knob is locked, the display will show OFF
9
RETURN jack
This is the return for the impulse waveform. This jack is referenced to the chassis of the MegaPulse, and is referenced to earth
ground as long as the MegaPulse is properly grounded. Even though this jack is referenced to ground, it should be treated as
HAZARDOUS whenever the MegaPulse is turned ON.
10
50 ohm OUTPUT jack
The impulse waveform appears on the OUTPUT jack, referenced to the RETURN jack.
When the POLARITY switch is in the Normal position ( NOR indicator is lit) the output will be a positive pulse.
When the POLARITY switch is in the Reverse position ( REV indicator is lit) the output will be a negative pulse.
