PROGRAM Menu
The PROGRAM menu is shown in Figure 4-4. It can be reached in one of two ways:
1. by selecting the Menu key, selecting the PROGRAM entry and pressing the Enter key.
2. by pressing the Set key.
The PROGRAM menu is used to change primary output parameters. Less frequently used
parameters are located in the CONTROL menu.
The following choices are available in the PROGRAM menus:
ENTRY
CURR
FREQ
VRANGE
PHASE
FUNC
CLIP LEVEL
COMPV

DESCRIPTION
Programs the output current in Arms. The current can be
changed from 0 to its max range value as determined by the
configuration settings.
Programs the output frequency The frequency can be changed
from its min to its max value as determined by the configuration
settings using the shuttle knob or the keypad.
Shows the maximum supported compliance voltage.
Selects the phase angle between the external clock and the
output of the AC source. If the clock source is internal, this
parameter has no effect.
Selects the waveform for the selected phase. Available choices
are SINE, SQUARE and CLIPPED or any user defined
waveform that was downloaded to the AC source waveform
memory using the IEEE-488, LAN, RS232C or USB interface.
Sets the clip level for the CLIPPED sine wave in percent of %
total harmonic current distortion (ITHD). The range is 0 to 20 %.
Sets the compliance voltage limit value for the voltage detection
system. When the compliance voltage exceeds the set limit, a
fault condition is generated. The actual response of the AC
Source to a compliance voltage limit fault is determined by the
protection mode selected in the OL MODE field. (CC = Constant
Current, CV = Constant Voltage).
Sets the voltage limit over load mode. The actual response of
the AC Source to a voltage limit fault is determined by this
setting. Available settings are CC for Constant Current mode or
CV for Constant Voltage mode. In CC mode, the AC source
output will trip off and stay off until re-engaged. In CV mode, the
current will be reduced to maintain the set voltage level.
