ENTERING CHANNEL LOBES
After the channel has been selected, the LOBE data may be entered. If no lobes have previously
been programmed for the selected channel, the F and T fields will display blank characters (‘_’).
If one or more LOBES already exist for the selected channel, the data for the first LOBE will be
displayed in the F and T fields.
The PLS-601 allows programming through zero by specifying a FROM field that is larger than the
TO field. For example, if the ‘FROM’ field is specified as 300 and the TO field is set to 060, the
channel output will turn on at 300, remain on through zero, and turn off at 060. The PLS-601 will
not allow data entry into the FROM or TO fields if the value is greater than the SCALE FACTOR
value. If this is attempted, the value will automatically be set to zero.
The following designates the entry of new channel LOBES.
