Protection Settings
The Protection settings are used to prevent damage to the unit or
the DUT by excessive current, voltage or power.
An alarm is generated and a message is displayed on the screen
when a protection setting is tripped. When an alarm is activated,
the load is turned off (or limited), and the ALARM STATUS pin of
the J1 connector on the rear panel (pin 16) turns on (open collector
output by a photocoupler). The protection settings can be used
regardless of whether the remote sense connections are used or not.
OCP
For OCP, the PEL-3000(H) can be configured to
either limit the current or turn off the load.
The OCP levels can be set to 10% higher than the
rating current.
> Configure[F5] > Protection[F1]
and set the OCP Level and OCP Setting.
OCP Level: Rating current + 10%
OCP Setting: LIMIT, Load Off
When OCP Setting is configured to Load Off, a
message will be displayed on the screen when
OCP is tripped. The Enter key must be pressed
to clear the alarm message.
When configured to LIMIT, OCP will be
displayed on the screen when the OCP is
tripped and the current will be limited to the
OCP Level setting.
