Measurement Overview
The PEL-2000A series has a number of different operating modes
that are completely configurable. All the modes have customizable
Go/NoGo limits, range limits, timers, slew rates, alarms and
protection limits. For parallel loads, there is a dedicated Parallel
configuration mode. To make tests, Programs and Sequences can be
created.
Function
Description
Constant Current
Mode (CC)
In constant current mode, the load module will
sink a constant amount of current, regardless of
the voltage.
Constant Voltage
Mode (CV)
Under constant voltage mode, the voltage remains
unchanged, regardless of the current.
Constant
Resistance Mode
(CR)
In constant resistance mode, the resistance load
will remain unchanged as the voltage and current
remain proportional.
Constant Power
Mode (CP)
In constant power mode, the load module will
ensure the power consumed is constant.
Programmable
Sequences
(Prog.)
The load module supports programming
sequences. With up to 120 different memory
settings in 12 programs with 10 sequences.
Sequences (Seq.)
Used to create load profiles to accurately simulate
a load. Sequences can be created for each channel.
Group Unit Mode
Group Unit Mode enables the PEL-2000A series
mainframes to easily use load modules (of the
same type/rating) in parallel. Parallel mode is
used in conjunction with CC or CR modes. CP and
CV mode cannot be used with this mode.
