3.4.10 Measuring load factor – "9. LOAD FCTR"
Menu #9 "LOAD FCTR" in Programming Mode allows you to measure the maximum output current, the average
output current, and the average braking power. There are two modes of measurement: "hours," in which the
measurement takes place for a specified length of time, and "start to stop," in which the measurement takes
place from the start of running to the stop.
