Transient Operation
Transient operation enables the electronic load to periodically switch between two
load levels, as might be required for testing power supplies. A power supply's
regulation and transient characteristics can be evaluated by monitoring the supply's
output voltage under varying combinations of load levels, frequency, and duty cycle.
Transient operation can be turned on and off at the front panel or PC via the IT-E131
isolated communication cable. Before you turn on transient operation, you should set
the desired mode of operation as well as all of the parameters associated with
transient operation. Transient operation may be used in the CC, CR, or CV or CW
modes and can be setup in continuous, pulsed, or toggled operation mode.
Continuous
Generates a repetitive pulse stream the toggles between two load levels and change
the state between value A and value B.
