Figure 4-21: UTILITY Menus
The UTILITY menus provide access to less frequently used setup items. There is
no connection between the various entries in the UTILITY menu other than there
is no other logical place to put them. The following entries can be found in the
UTILITY menu:
Entry Description
UTILITY 1
GPIB/RS232 SETUP This entry provides access to the setup parameters for
either the IEEE-488, RS232, USB, or LAN interface. All
parameters are saved in non-volatile memory so there
is rarely a need to change these values.
VOLT/CURR CONTROL The voltage and current control menu can be used to
select the current limit method, the voltage sense
source, and the number of output phases. (Phase mode
selection available on MX30-3Pi or MX45-3Pi model.)
The standard available voltage range pairs are 150 Vac
and 300 Vac in AC mode or 200 Vdc and 400 Vdc in DC
mode.
The two current limit choices are Constant Voltage and
Constant Current. Constant Voltage mode will maintain
the set voltage at the output until the load current
exceeds the current limit setting at which time the
voltage will be dropped to zero. This effectively shuts
off the AC source output in case of an overload
condition. This mode has user programmable trip
delay, which is in the same menu.
