The external DC source, EM TEST recommends the RDS 200 dc source, is controlled by the analog output voltage which is available at the rear panel of the PFS 200N.
EM TEST PFS 200 Series 4.2. Examples Test setup Setup example with: AutoWave UCS 200N VDS 200N LD200N PFS 200N RDS 200N Note : Do never connect The PFS200 output 0-10V in parallel with any Autowave output. In this case the controlled DC source will deliver a wrong output signal. It is not allowed to connect two voltage sources in parallel.

EM TEST PFS 200 Series 4.3. Operation modes Two LED’s mounted on the front panel show if a channels is active or not. The LED of an active channel is lighted. During DIP mode the LED display switches from one channel to the other.
EM TEST PFS 200 Series 4.3.1. Voltage dips Dependent on the preselected test parameters at the front panel of the simulator the power supply for the EUT is reduced for a certain time to a certain dip voltage. The nominal supply for the DUT is connected at the rear side of the simulator to channel PF1 and the reduced dip voltage shall be connected to PF2.

EM TEST equipment. EM TEST doesn’t know each customer’s Quality Assurance Policy nor do we know how often the equipment is used and what kind of tests is performed during the life cycle of test equipment. Only the customer knows all the details and therefore the customer needs to specify the calibration interval for his test equipment.
