INITIAL SETUP  The initial setup menu can be used to determine the AC source 
settings at power up. CAUTION: The initial setup can be used 
to power up the AC source with the output on and a high 
voltage present at the output. For normal situations, this is not 
recommended due to the potential danger to operators. It is 
recommended that the initial voltage be set low and/or the 
output relay be programmed to OFF for most situations. 
LIMIT SETUP  The Limit menu shows the frequency, voltage and current limit 
capabilities of the AC source. Any attempt to program the 
output beyond these limits will result in a “-222 Data Out of 
Range error”. Note that these limits are hardware determined 
and cannot be changed by the user. They are shown for 
reference only. 
UTILITY 2 
CONFIGURATION  The Configuration menu shows the installed options. This 
screen is for reference only and no fields can be changed by 
the user. 
LANETWORK SETUP  Displays or sets LAN interface settings. If the LAN option is 
present, this screen may be used to view or change LAN 
parameters. The MAC address is fixed and cannot be changed. 
IP and Gateway addresses are normally assigned by the 
network DCHP server. Changes to the other fields can be made 
by pressing the SET button first. The indicator in the top right 
hand of the screen will change from “NC” to “SET”. Note that 
any setting changes made won’t take effect till after the unit has 
been powered down and back up.  
To set the LAN interface to AUTO IP mode, set the IP and 
Gateway address to all zeros. This will cause the IP to be 
requested from the network the next time power is cycled. To 
manually set the IP and Gateway address, enter the address 
from the keypad. 
The Port address is normally set to 5025. The number of host 
bits is a function of the network address range. 
 
To rest the LAN to its default configuration, select the MAC 
Address and press the SET key followed by ENTER key. 
Confirm with the ENTER key.
