2.8.5. RAMP Programming
38
By using this programming, the calibrator output varies automatically, thus producing ramps and level marks
which may be programmed to actuate once or continuously.
The output type must be previously configured, otherwise the Select OUTPUT first message is shown. In
this case, press C/CE to go back to the main menu in order to select the input type.
From the main menu, select CONF (ENTER), PROG (ENTER), and RAMP (ENTER). Then you must enter
the start and the end values of the range within which the output will travel (High and Low setpoint), and also the
value of time (in seconds) required for a complete travel within the range (Ramp Time). Another value that may be
configured is how long it should dwell at the level mark (Dwell Time), that is, the time during which the output
remains constant between two ramps.
After the configuration is complete, you have to go back to the main menu and press EXEC; the output goes
to the starting value of the configured range. When the arrow key is pressed, an ascending cycle is started, and
pressing , a descending cycle begins, only once. Pressing and , cycles are obtained on a continuous basis.
