Set Output Limits
An output limit feature is available to help prevent accidental damage to a UUT from
overcurrent or overvoltage conditions. The maximum positive and negative allowable
voltage or current output can be preset with this feature. Entry limits that are set prevent
any input greater than the limit from being activated by entry through the front-panel
keys or the output adjustment controls. Positive limits for voltage and current set the
limits for ac voltage and current. Default entry limits after power-up or is pushed are
the specified maximum and minimum for each output function.
Note
The output limits are not saved when the Calibrator is powered down.
To set voltage and current entry limits:
1. Touch Setup Menu>Instrument Setup>Output Limits. This menu is shown:

2. There is a selection for each of the four limits: maximum positive voltage and current
and negative voltage and current. Select the limit to change by touching the
corresponding selection.
3. Use the numeric keys to enter the necessary voltage limit and , , or if
necessary, followed by .
Note
The upper voltage limit sets the limits for both dc and ac voltage. The upper
current limit sets the limits for both dc and ac current.
