Figure 4-23: INITIAL SETUP Menus 
Any time the power source is powered up, the output will reflect the values stored as the INITIAL 
setup values. This allows the unit to be powered up in a known state at all times. The INITIAL 
values can be set in the INITIAL SETUP menus. 
The initial setup can be used to power up the power 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 the operator. It is recommended that the initial voltage be set low and/or the 
output relay be programmed to OFF for most situations. 
The following fields are provided in the INITIAL SETUP menus: 
Entry  Description   
INITIAL SETUP 1 
VOLTAGE  Sets the power-on AC voltage for AC and AC+DC modes or the 
DC voltage for DC mode. 
CURR LIMIT  Sets the power-on current limit value. 
FREQ  Sets the power-on frequency value. 
PHASE  Sets the power-on frequency for phase A with respect to an 
external sync signal. If the internal oscillator is used (default) 
this setting has no effect. 
INITIAL SETUP 2 
VOLT RANGE  Sets the power-on voltage range value. 
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).
