Ametek Sorensen Asterion AST Series - Figure 3-24. Voltage Ramp-Screen (Abort)

DC Asterion Series Overview
M330460-01 Rev A 3-11
In HW trigger mode, when external trigger is received, Waiting for
Trig will change to Abort button, refer to Figure 3-24. Pressing the
Abort button aborts the ramp.

Exit Exits the Voltage Ramp sub menu and return to Ramp Screen Top
level menu, refer to Figure 3-19.
NOTE: You cannot exit out of Voltage Ramp Screen using HOME and UP arrow, these
buttons are disabled for the Voltage Ramp Screen; Refer to Figure 3-20.
Example 1: Creating a Voltage ramp using Software Trigger mode
• Set the Volt to 25V
• Set the To Volt to 50V
• Set the Curr to 20A
• Set the Time to 10s
• Select the Trigger mode as SW (software)
• Click on Initialize
• Click on Trigger Ramp
• Observe that Trigger Ramp button will change to Abort button
• Observe the voltage ramp signal using oscilloscope
• Clicking on the Abort button will abort the ramp.
• Clicking on the Exit button will exit the Voltage Ramp screen.
Example 2: Creating a Voltage ramp using Hardware Trigger mode
• Set the Volt to 25V
• Set the To Volt to 50V
• Set the Curr to 20A
• Set the Time to 10s
• Select the Trigger mode as HW (Hardware)
• Click on Initialize
• Observe that Trigger Ramp button will change to Waiting for Trig.
• Give an external trigger i.e. an active high pulse of 10ms on the MOLEX
connector pin-8 (TRIGGER_IN) and pin-12 (DIN_RTN) to generate the
Voltage Ramp.
• Observe that Waiting for Trig will change to Abort button.
• Observe the voltage ramp signal using oscilloscope
