  • Page 69: Alarms And Monitoring

    PSI 9000 3U Series Alarms and monitoring 3.6.1 Definition of terms There is a clear distinction between device alarms (see „. Alarm conditions“) such as overvoltage protection or overheating protection, and user defined events such as OVD (overvoltage detection). Whilst device alarms serve to protect the device by initially switching off the DC output, user defined events can switch off the DC output (Ac- tion = ALARM), but can also simply give an acoustic signal to make the user aware.
  • Page 70 PSI 9000 3U Series ► How to configure the device alarms While the DC output is switched off tap the touch area on the main screen. On the right side tap the arrow to select “2. Protect”. Set the limits for the equipment alarm relevant to your application if the default value of 110% is unsuitable. The set values can be entered using the ten-key tab.

    PSI 9000 3U Series 3.10 The function generator 3.10.1 Introduction The built-in function generator (short: FG) is able to create various signal forms and apply these to the set value of either voltage or current. The standard functions are based on an arbitrary generator and directly accessible and configurable using manual control.
  • Page 74: Method Of Operation

    PSI 9000 3U Series 3.10.2.3 Resolution of X (time) and Y (amplitude) The device can set 4096 steps between 0 ... 100% of nominal value. The intervals to create a linear or other rise/ fall are calculated depending on the amplitude and then set. If the amplitude is very low and the time long, only few intervals will be set as otherwise many identical values will be set one after another, generating a staircase effect.

  • Page 78: 3.10.10 Arbitrary Function

    PSI 9000 3U Series 3.10.10 Arbitrary function The arbitrary (freely definable) function offers the user further scope. Up to 100 sequences are available for use for current I and voltage U, all of which have the same parameters but which can be differently configured so that a complex function process can be built up.
  • Page 79 PSI 9000 3U Series Schematic diagram: Applications and results: Example 2 Focussing 1 cycle of 1 sequence from 100: The DC values at start and end are the same but the AC (amplitude) not. The end value is higher than the start so that the amplitude increases with each new half sine wave continuously through the sequence.
  • Page 80 PSI 9000 3U Series By linking together a number of differently configured sequences, complex progressions can be created. Smart configuration of the arbitrary generator can be used to match triangular, sine, rectangular or trapezoidal wave func- tions and thus, e.g. a sequence of rectangular waves with differing amplitudes or duty cycles could be produced. Assignment to either U or I makes up to 100 sequences available for either current or voltage but not a mix.

    The function generator is unavailable if R mode (resistance) is activated • Some functions are based on the arbitrary generator, some on the XY generator. Therefore, both generators have to be controlled and configured separately © 2015 Intepro Systems, LP. Specifications subject to change without notice.
