With the DR340, power is output whenever the generator voltage is higher than the battery voltage. This typically means that useful power can be supplied at a lower RPM. DR340 also includes current limiting, which is not included in most mechanical regulators.

TESTING & CALIBRATION The DR340 voltage and current limits are set at the factory, and normally, no adjustment or calibration is required. You may however, wish to confirm that everything is working properly, or change the settings to accommodate your needs.

You should be able to reach the voltage limit at no more than 3000 or 4000 RPM. 6) When finished, remove the voltmeter and re-attach the wires to the B terminals. Current Adjust Voltage Adjust Figure 4 – Location of Pots DR340 Instruction Manual Pg. 3...

Current Limit Test: 1) With the two B wires disconnected from the DR340, and connected together, connect a 0-40A ammeter between the B terminal of the regulator and the two B wires connected together.

In the DR340, the output voltage of the generator is compared to a precision voltage reference. When the generator output exceeds this reference, the current to the field coils is cut off. This causes the generator output to fall. When the output falls below the reference voltage, the field current is turned back on.
