Update Mode
The current or voltage setting of the unit can also be performed in four different
modes:
•
NORMAL
: the update of the set-point (current or voltage, depending on the
operation mode) is performed as soon as a new set-point is received via the
remote, local or fast interfaces;
•
WAVEFORM
: the update of the set-point is performed on a specific timing
(defined as a “waveform” attribute, more information on the
Waveform
section) and it is done internally;
•
TRIGGER
: the set-point is updated by an external event – i.e. a hardware
trigger coming from the rear BNC connector. Please note that this mode of
operation is obtainable only on the units that have the external trigger input
connector installed (ordering option – factory configurable);
•
ANALOG INPUT
: the unit is controlled by an external signal that is fed to
the rear BNC connector. The unit acts as a C.C. or C.V. generator depending
on the pre-set Regulation Mode. This option is only available in units that
have been factory configured (ordering option).
Please note that the last two Update Modes of operation are available only in
models that have been factory configured at the time of purchase to have the Trigger
Input and/or the Analog Control Input features.
