Parameter Field
Description
24
VA Lo-Lmt
Sets the minimum apparent power threshold or floor level.
If a minimum wattage level is not exceeded, a failure will
occur. This ensures a load is attached to the power source
and there is a minimum wattage present.
25
Q Hi-Lmt
Sets the maximum reactive power threshold or ceiling
level. When this level is exceeded, a failure will occur.
26
Q Lo-Lmt
Sets the minimum reactive power threshold or floor level.
If a minimum wattage level is not exceeded, a failure will
occur.
27
Ramp Up
Sets the voltage ramp up time. This is the duration of time
over which the programmed output voltage will be
reached.
28
Timer Unit.
Sets the time increment that will be used for testing.
Available options are Second/Minute/Hour.
29
Delay
Sets a time delay, or warm up time if needed. There is a
voltage output present from the power source during this
time period, but the high and low limit thresholds are
essentially ignored during this period.
30
Dwell
Sets the actual test time. This time begins after any ramp
up time has completed. The high and low limit thresholds
are active once any delay time has completed.
31
Ramp Down
Sets the time duration over which the output voltage is
reduced to zero after the dwell time has completed.
32
Prompt
Allows a user defined message prompt unique to a
particular step. The message will be shown on the LCD
graphic display prior to the test beginning for that
particular step test routine. At this point the test routine
will be paused and the operator must press the Test/Reset
key to resume the test sequence.
33
Step Cycle
Sets the number of looping cycles for a particular step. For
example if the operator would like to have a step repeat
five times the step cycle would be programmed to five.
34
Ext Trig.
Sets the external sync output trigger mode.
35
Connect
Determines if a step will be linked or connected to the next
step. For example in order to link step 1 to step 2, the
Connect parameter must be turned ON. Steps can only be
connected in sequential order.
Note 1: These Surge/Drop parameter entries are only visible if the Surge/Drop setting is ON.
