4.2.4 PROGRAM Menus
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
V OLT
FREQ
V RA NGE
PHA SE
FUNC
CLIP LEV EL
MX15 Series

Programs the output voltage in V rms. The voltage can be changed from 0 to its max
range value as determined by the configuration settings and the selected voltage
range by using the keypad + Enter or the shuttle (if the voltage field is selected).
Programs the output frequency. The frequency can be changed from its min to its
max value as determined by the configuration settings by using the keypad + Enter
or the shuttle (if the frequency field is selected).
Selects 150V , 300V , or 400V voltage range (if available). The value of this field can
be changed with the shuttle as long as the active pointer () points to the V RA NGE
entry.
Selects the phase angle between the external clock and the output of the A C source.
If the clock source is internal, this parameter has no effect.
Selects the waveform for the selected phase. On M X 15-1Pi models, available choices
are SINUSOID, SQUA RE and CLIPPED or any user defined waveform that was
downloaded to the A C source waveform memory using the RS232 or IEEE-488
interface.
This field is fixed to SINUSOID on MX 15-1 models.
Sets the clip level for the CLIPPED sine wave in percent V THD. The range is 0 to 20
%. (M X 15-1Pi models only).
Note: Changing the clip level setting will result in temporary loss of the output
voltage as the new clipped waveform is loaded. This may cause the EUT to reset or
turn off. To avoid this, set the desired clip level before programming the AC voltage
and turning on the output to the EUT or use the transient list system to switch
between waveforms.
