(Measure Setup): The Measure Setup softkey in ACI menu has
parameters that can be set up to make ac current measurements. Parameter
choices are:
• Signal path coupling
• Secondary Reading
• Frequency path coupling
• Frequency path bandwidth limit
• Period/Frequency resolution
• Peak to peak method
Make the selection with the softkeys or use the navigational keys to highlight the
selection and push . See ACI Measure Setup.
ACI Measure Setup
There are parameters in the ACI Measure Setup menu that can be changed.
• Signal path coupling: Choose (AC) or (DC).
Note
This coupling affects the signal at the output of the Products internal
current shunt, as the input signal is always directly connected to the
Product internal current shunt.
• Secondary Reading: In the ACI function, a secondary reading can be
shown. The menu choices are:
o (OFF) (none)
o (Frequency)
o (Period)
o (Pk to Pk)
o (More) additional Secondary Reading parameters
(Pk to Pk) (repeated here for ease of use)
(Crest Factor)
(Positive Peak)

Negative Peak)

primary menu parameters.
When Pk to Pk is selected, the last submenu in ACV Measure Setup, Peak
to peak method becomes active. (see below).
