STEP PARAMETERS

Selects the number of Step Count (0 - 65535 & infinity) and the different Step Modes (STEP, STEP AUTO, and STEP
ONCE)

MEASURE SENSE

This feature allows selection of local sense or remote sense of voltage. Remote sense allows voltage to be measured at a
different sense point than the bus bars to prevent large voltage drops over lengthy wires. If the voltage reading between
the remote sense and bus bar differ by greater than a set threshold, Remote Sense Fault (RSF) will trigger and shutdown
the input.
Note: The eLoad's voltage measuring points (positive and negative) can be configured to two locations. One is from the
power input terminals called Local; the other is from the remote sense terminal block in the rear panel called Remote
(Remote option is only available in certain models). The purpose of the Remote sense is for more accurate voltage
measurement when longer cables are used (large voltage drop caused by long cables).
MEAS. BUFFER STABLE READ BACK
For AC coupled DC input signals, the read back meter may display an unstable reading. Do not be alarmed, the read back
reading update rate can be slowed down for a more stable reading. Only 8 or 16 meas. buffer setting is suggested to be
selected, to ensure the correct measurements are updated properly.

PORT 0

A general purpose output port that generates a TTL compatible signal; active high (5V) when port is on and inactive low
(0V) when port is turned off. The PORT 0 feature can be used to control exte rnal devices such as a DC Contactor or a
relay. To enable PORT 0, simply follow LOAD CONTROL → PORT 0 → ON.
