10 -LDe Option 10 -LDe Option 10-1 Overview With -LDe option, you can use the pulse sequence function that automatically repeats OUTPUT ON/OFF and the ramp sequence function that allows easy setting of the rising times. Also, the sweep program* that allows you to perform detailed settings of these controls by digital commands is available.
10 -LDe Option 10-3 Examples of using Pulse Sequence Function 10-3-1 Using with Infinite Number Times This section shows an example of pulse sequence setting to "On", the output ON time unit / OFF time unit to Sec, the output ON time/OFF time to 1.0 sec, and Cnt to 0 times. Set ON in the pulse sequence menu.
10 -LDe Option 10-3-2 Using with Specified Number Times This section shows an example of pulse sequence setting to "On", the output ON time unit / OFF time unit to Sec, the output ON time/OFF time to 1.0 sec, and Cnt to 2 times. Set ON in the pulse sequence menu.
10 -LDe Option 10-3-3 Using with Multiple Setting Mode This section shows an example of pulse sequence setting to "On", the output ON time unit / OFF time unit to Sec, the output ON time/OFF time to 1.0 sec, and Cnt to 2 times. Set ON in the pulse sequence menu.

10 -LDe Option Move to normal use operation to set the multiple values. Make sure that the multiple setting operation be conducted with the pulse sequence function disabled. Enable Multiple setting function by pressing and hold SET REMOTE Press and hold SET LED flashes OUTPUT OVP/...
10 -LDe Option 10-4 Features of Ramp Function The ramp function sets the rising time/falling time arbitrarily. And, the operating mode of rising/falling can be set both voltage and current simultaneously, voltage only, or current only. *By pressing down the [SET] switch during the ramp operation, you can check the rising/falling status. ...
10 -LDe Option 10-5 Using with Ramp Function 10-5-1 Using with Basic Ramp Function This section shows an example of ramp setting to "On", the output ON time/OFF time to 1.0 sec, and the ramp operations to the CV/CC modes. Set ON in the ramp menu.
10 -LDe Option 10-5-2 Using Together with Pulse Sequence Function In the ramp function, when used together with the pulse sequence function, it performs ramp operation at the time of rising and falling when the output is repeatedly turned on and off. Here, as an example, set the pulse sequence setting to "On", the output ON time unit / OFF time unit to Sec, the output ON time / OFF time to 1.0 sec, and Cnt to 0 times.
10 -LDe Option 10-5-3 Using with Both Multiple Setting and Pulse Sequence In the ramp function, when used together with both the multiple setting and pulse sequence functions, it performs ramp operation at the time of rising and falling as the Memory a/b/c and OFF operations are repeatedly performed.

10 -LDe Option 10-6 Features of Sweep Program With the sweep program, operations that cannot be fully set by ramp operation are supported, and detailed control of output operations is available (with -LDe option*). *-LDe option and -LCk or -LMi option cannot be used for the sweep function. ...
10 -LDe Option 10-7 Operation Check of Sweep Program Control the product connected to CO-MET2-9/CO-MET2-25/CO-MET4-25 via RS-232C/RS-485. As for connection, see [9-2-1 RK/REK/REKJ series (Standard Digital Interface), CO-MET2-9,CO-MET2-25, CO-MET4-25]. Voltage is actually output. Do not connect any load to the product until the operation checking has been completed.
10 -LDe Option 10-8 Features of Master following Function -LDe optional master follow function sends output signals to slave units during pulse sequence operation and ramp operation when multiple power supply units are connected in a master-slave configuration. This allows the slave unit to output in a different state than the master unit. (The master follow function is not available for the -LUs1/-LEt option.) Start Master unit...

11 -LEt Option 11 -LEt Option 11-1 Overview When the -LEt option is installed, the digital communication interface is supported by LAN. This allows the LAN controller to directly control power supplies installed on the network without interface conversion equipment. 11-2 LAN Connector Connect with a commercially available LAN cable (10BASE-T or 100BASE-T with RJ45 connector).
11 -LEt Option 11-4-1 Web Manager As far as the IP address of the power supply unit is found, open your browser and enter the IP address in the address field. Then, the account entry screen will appear, and click OK. *If the IP address is unknown, configure the default settings and reboot the power supply unit.

Troubleshooting If you suspect a malfunction, first stop the product, unplug the AC input cable from the outlet, or turn off the AC input power breaker. Next, check with a voltmeter or similar device that there is no voltage remaining at the output, and then check the input/output and optional wiring.
