Waveform Viewer
The Waveform Viewer soft key displays a visual time domain representation of the selected
AC waveform. It is similar to the Preview Waveform function in the Settings & More screen
covered in section 6.7.1.3.
6.7.4
Limitation (User Limits)
The Limitation soft key displays the user limit
setting screen. User limits are useful to
protect a unit under test from operator error
by setting upper and or lower parameter
value limits for key output parameters like
voltage and frequency.
The user limits must fall within the hardware
limits of the power source, which are:
•
Vac range: 0 ~ 300 V
•
Vdc range: -424.2 Vdc to + 424.2
Vdc
•
Frequency: 15 ~ 1000 Hz for
Standard models, 15 ~ 1200 Hz
for Enhanced models.
Thus, user limits cannot be set higher than
these upper hardware limits.
To set any of the available user limits, use the
cursor or touch screen to select one of the
available limit set values. You can also use
the
Set to Maximum
or
Set to Minimum
soft
keys to enter max or min limit values.
Note: User limits are independent of the
selected voltage range so an upper Vac limit setting higher than 150V will have no effect
while on the 150V AC voltage range as the voltage range limit supersedes the user limit.
