Breaker #(n)

This section contains settings for the specified electronic circuit breaker. One of these sections is
present for each of the breakers in the unit.

Label

This text box allows you to configure a text label for the breaker to identify it (for example,
"RUNNING LIGHTS" or "HATCH"). For each breaker, set this to a value which describes the
breaker so that you can easily identify it in display devices.

State

This read-only field indicates the current state of the breaker. It will contain one of the following
values:
• OFF – the breaker is currently off (not supplying power)
• ON – the breaker is currently on (supplying power)
• TRIP/ERROR – the breaker is currently off (not supplying power) due to an overcurrent
or error condition

Default State

This allows you to configure the state of the breaker when the CLMD16 is powered on. You can set
this to one of the following values:
• OFF – the breaker will be OFF after the CLMD16 is powered on
• ON – the breaker will be ON after the CLMD16 is powered on
• LAST STATE – after the CLMD16 is powered on, the breaker will be set to the state it
was in when power was last removed

Default Lock State

This parameter allows you to configure whether the breaker is locked when the CLMD16 is powered
on. You can set this to one of the following values:
• LOCKED – the breaker is locked, i.e., it's state will not change due to network inputs
• UNLOCKED – the breaker is unlocked, and its state will respond normally to
network inputs

Type

This parameter allows you to configure the desired operating mode for this breaker. You can choose
one of the following:
• DC – the breaker may be controlled OFF and ON.
• PWM – this breaker may be controlled OFF and ON and may be dimmed by altering the
changing duty cycle of the PWM counter assigned to the breaker.
• Soft Start DC – the breaker may be controlled OFF and ON. When the breaker is turned
ON, the power starts in PWM mode with the duty cycle set by "Soft Start %" parameter,
and then ramps to fully ON over the next one second time interval.
• Full-Bridge – if both breakers in a full-bridge pair (i.e., 1 and 2, or 11 and 12) are
configured to Full-bridge, then the two breakers will work together as a full bridge ( H-
bridge). The full bridge may be controlled OFF and ON, and its direction may be
controlled.
