2 Operating modes
2.2 Burst-firing operation, for resistive loads
14
In this mode of operation, the power is regulated by changing the number of
full-wave cycles of the supply line voltage which are switched on during each
control period. This method is used for purely resistive loads which have a
cold resistance that is roughly the same as the hot resistance.
Since switching only takes place at the zero-crossing points, this mode of
operation produces very little RF-interference.
The internal switch S20 can be used to adjust the duty cycle to suit the system
being controlled.

Cycle time
Variable cycle time
The control unit uses the shortest available cycle time
(for fast control loops)
Fixed cycle time (≈ 500ms)
Used for transformer loads, slow control loops
