NAME

 

FUNCTION

 

11 

400 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. 

12 

AUX

 

OUTPUT 

jack 

The 

AUX OUTPUT 

is connected at the grounded side of the 100ohm resistor, but this output is only used when it is required to 

float the 100ohm resistor. 

13 

MEAS. POINT

 jack 

Used to perform the Pass/Fail reference test. 

14 

Y1 – Y2

 outputs 

These differential outputs are to be connected to two different channels of an oscilloscope.  The outputs are then subtracted and 
the resulting waveform is used to judge acceptability of the EUT.  

15 

ENERGY MEAS.

 switch

 

By pressing this switch, the front display will blink showing for a few seconds the energy measurement from the last pulse. 
Note: This function only works when the MegaPulse unit is not charging or triggering. 

16 

PASS FAIL REF.

 switch 

 

The D5-PF Includes the Pass-Fail reference circuit built in, to use properly refer to the directions on front panel. 

17 

PASS FAIL REF.

 indicator 

This Green indicator is lit to show that the pass/fail reference is connected (AUX OUTPUT must be grounded). 

18 

AUX OUTPUT 

switch 

It is used to control the AUX output position (Floated or Grounded). 

19 

AUX OUTPUT 

indicator 

This Green indicator is lit to show that 

AUX OUPUT

 switch is set on the 

FLOAT

 position. 

20 

S3 

switch 

Used for common mode testing of figure 201.103, S3 switch should be closed only when auxiliary output is floated from ground. 

21 

S3 

indicator

 

This Green indicator is lit to show that 

S3

 switch is set on the 

SHORT

 position. 

22 

INDUCTOR 

left switch 

This switch allows the user to select the inductance value between 500uH and 25mH.

 

23 

INDUCTOR 

right switch 

This switch allows the user to select the inductance resistance value between 10 ohm and 11ohm when INDUCTOR left switch is 
on 25mH.

 

24 

S2 

left

 

switch 

This switch is provided to protect the Signal Generator from the output pulse of the D5-PF when OFF, and to allow the required 
20V p-p signal to be injected when SINE WAVE is selected.  

25 

S2 

right

 

switch 

This switch is enable only when S2 left switch is on SINE WAVE position and allows selecting between 390K or 470K ohm.  

26 

BNC INPUT 10Hz, 22Vp-p

 

BNC Input provided on front panel is for connecting the output signal generator.  See Figure 12 Part 9A. 

Note:

 If the unit includes the Sine Wave Generation option, the item 26 will be a BNC OUTPUT 10Hz, for monitoring the Sine 

Wave with an oscilloscope. 

27 

COARSE

 adjustment (optional)

 

It is used to adjust the amplitude of the sine waveform. Only for models with Sine Wave Generation option. 

28 

FINE

 adjustment (optional)

 

It is used to fine adjust the amplitude of the sine waveform. Only for models with Sine Wave Generation option.
