User Manual – Rev BE    AMETEK Programmable Power 
MX Series  148 
VOLT MODE  Sets the power-on voltage mode. Available settings are 
AC mode, DC mode or AC+DC mode. 
OL MODE  Sets the power-on overload mode. Available settings 
are Constant Current (CC) or Constant Voltage (CV) 
mode. 
OUTPUT RELAY  Sets the power-on state of the output relay. Available 
settings are ON or OFF. 
INITIAL SETUP 3 
VOLT SENSE  Sets the power-on state of the voltage sense mode. 
Available settings are Internal (INT) or External (EXT). 
WAVE GROUP  [3Pi Controller only] Sets the user defined waveform 
group that will be loaded at power on. Available groups 
are 0, 1, 2 and 3. Each group can contain up to 50 
user-defined waveforms. A waveform group can only be 
loaded at power up. To change groups, you must 
change this field to the desired new group and cycle the 
power to the AC source or issue a *RST command over 
one bus. 
CLOCK MODE  Sets the clock source used at power up. Available 
settings are Stand Alone (STAND), MASTER (-LKM clock 
and lock master), and AUX (-LKS clock and lock 
auxiliary). 
NO. OUTPUT  [MX30-3Pi or MX45-3Pi model only] Sets the phase 
mode at power up. Available options are single-phase 
mode (ONE), three-phase mode (THREE) or last used 
phase mode (LAST). If the phase mode option is not 
installed, this field is fixed to ONE or THREE. 
VOLT ALC  Determines ALC mode at power on. The ALC mode 
adjusts the output voltage based on internal voltage 
measurement system and provides enhanced output 
regulation and accuracy. Available settings are ON, OFF 
or REG (Series II only).
