Once all the linking cables and conductor connections have been made, you can power
up each individual 300XAC via the Power Switch on the front panel. Upon power up,
the 300XAC will go through an initialization screen to verify that the additional sources
are interconnected via the linking cable. If there is a proper connection, a message will
appear acknowledging that additional 300XAC sources are linked and prompting the
user to enable the additional sources. (continued on back page)

(Option 8 Linking Card Required)
POLYPHASE OUTPUT MODE (3Ø4W)
If three (3) instruments are interconnected 3Ø4W mode is available. This mode allows
the operator to configure the instruments for three phase operation. Each phase will
output voltage 120 degrees apart.
You will be using two linking cables between the three 300XAC sources. Connect
the linking cable from the output connector labeled “Link Ouput” of one 300XAC
source’s linking card to the input connector labeled “Link Input” of the second 300XAC
source’s linking card.
Now, take a second linking cable and connect it from the second 300XAC source’s
output connector labeled “Link Output” on the linking card to the input connector labeled
“Link Input” on the third 300XAC source’s linking card. (See Figure 6)
In the configuration below, the operator must connect the NEUTRALS of all sources
together at the load and utilize the LINE outputs to achieve full voltage. (See Figure 6)

IMPORTANT: BEFORE YOU BEGIN MAKING CONNECTIONS, YOU MUST
ENSURE THAT THE POWER SWITCH ON THE 300XAC INSTRUMENT IS IN THE
OFF POSITION.
