2.3 Menu

Various generator settings can be changed via the menu. This is done by using various key
combinations or by configuring the various parameters. This advanced menu consists of main
menus and submenus. Access to this menu can be protected with a user password.

2.4 Activation of the high voltage

The generator is able to switch the high voltage on and off using an external switch signal. This
is the Remote On/Off control.
Cont or Continuous The HV output voltage is continuously present at the output of the
Ext or External
Bus

2.5 Serial communication bus module (optional)

Installing an Anybus module means that the generator can be operated by a serial bus. In order
to be able to communicate with a generator in the communication network that is switched off,
an external supply voltage must be connected. The choice of serial communication protocol
used is determined by the Anybus module that is installed.
CM5_UM_ 9752090319_GB_V0_9
When the generator is operating in the CC mode, the desired
current is set on the generator. The generator now maintains the
set current and adjusts this with a higher or lower output voltage.
This method of control results in a constant ion current, or constant
charging.
generator.
The HV output voltage is switched on and off via an externally connected
switching signal.
The HV output voltage is switched on and off via information in the serial
communication protocol.
