    This configuration can be carried out either by using the advanced configuration software TRI POWER X33 HE Tools in the CD- ROM provided with the TRI POWER X33 HE, or directly from the TRI POWER X33 HE control panel. Installing and running TRI POWER X33 HETools: Follow the installation and operating instructions contained in the software manual provided in the TRI POWER X33 HE Tools folder in the CD-ROM.
  • Page 27: Use

    Description The purpose of this TRI POWER X33 HE is to ensure a perfect power supply voltage for the devices connected to it, whether mains power is present, or not. Once it has been connected and powered, the TRI POWER X33 HE generates a sinusoidal alternating voltage with stable amplitude and frequency, regardless of any sudden change or variation in the mains supply.
