lit. Waveform selections made in this mode will apply to all three phases.
4.4.3 Creating Custom Waveforms
The FCS controller supports up to 50 user defined waveforms in addition to the 3 standard
waveforms. Custom waveforms cannot be created from the front panel of the FCS Series.
Rather, they have to be downloaded through the IEEE-488, RS232C, LAN or USB interface.
Each waveform is defined by 1024 data points. Each data point can range between –1 and +1
(floating point number). See Lx Series II programming Manual (P/N 7004-981) for details on
downloading waveforms.
Once downloaded, waveforms remain in non-volatile memory and will be visible in the
to each custom
ted.
Waveforms may be deleted using the IEEE-488, RS232C, LAN or USB interface as well.
Custom waveforms cannot be deleted from the front panel however to avoid accidental erasure.

has a maximum peak voltage capability that is determined by the selected voltage range. If the
user selects a custom waveform with a crest factor that is higher than 1.414, the peak voltage
would exceed this maximum if the rms voltage were to be programmed at 300 V rms.
The FCS Series II power source automatically limits the maximum allowable programmed rms
voltage of a any custom waveform by calculating the crest factor of the sel

peak voltage cannot exceed the AC source’s capabilities, the programmable rms voltage has to
be restricted, in this case to only 167.8785 volt for the waveform on the left. The sine wave on
