K8AK-VS ●Setting Method 1. Setting Voltage The voltage knob (SV) is used to set the voltage. The voltage can be set to 10% to 100% of the maximum setting range. Turn the knob while there is an input to the input terminals until the alarm indicator flashes (when the set value and the input have reached the same level.)
Gradually decrease the input from 120% of the set value and check the operation using the same method as for overvoltage. Example: Overvoltage Operating Mode and an Operating Time of 5 s Note: K8AK-VS@ output relays are normally operative. Set value Input voltage Flashing...
