  • Page 14 Table 1. Power Factor/Phase Operating Procedure STEP OPERATOR ACTION RESULTS Apply power to PMC After successful completion of Function Tests the PMC will momentarily display PASSED FUNCTION TEST. The PMC will return to RESET mode and display DC, 60 Hz, or 400 Hz? The RESET, STBY, and NORMAL LED's (and the STORE LED if user settings are presently stored in the user memory) will be illuminated.

  • Page 16 Normal/Deviation In the % deviation mode the PMC computes and displays the output value according to the formula: PMC Display Value = (METER C.P. - PMC output value) X 100 % METER F.S. The PMC must have both the meter full scale value (Meter F.S.) and the meter calibration point (Meter C.P.) to perform the necessary calculation.
  • Page 17: Calibration Mode

    Calibration Mode The stored calibration constants can only be modified while in the calibrate mode. The calibrate mode is identified by a circle with a cross character appearing in the right-hand position of the display, usually after the units designator. While in the calibrate mode any or all of the stored constants may be modified.
  • Page 18: Entering Calibration Mode

    Entering Calibration Mode To access the calibrate mode, the operator must know the Key Code for the particular instrument. The Key Code is set to the instrument’s serial number when shipped from the factory. Access the calibrate mode in the following manner: 1.
