Current Inrush Example

This example illustrates programming the SW to simulate a current inrush waveform
that is 0V between 0° and 90°, then instantaneously jumps from 0V to 120V at 90°.
1. At the MAIN MENU, use either the Knob or the Up/Down Arrow keys to select the
WAVEFORM menu, then either press the Enter key or the Right Arrow key.
2. The WAVEFORM Menu will default to the LOAD sub-menu. If the cursor is not
pointing to LOAD, use the Knob or Up/Down Arrow keys to select LOAD.
3. Press the Enter key to enter the FUNC (function) mode.
4. Press <Enter> again to place a box around the waveshape selection.
5. Use the Knob to cycle through the waveshape selections until SINE appears in
the FUNC box.

message, [waveform successfully loaded], will indicate that the waveform is now
in scratchpad memory.
7. Press <Menu> to return to the WAVEFORM Menu.
8. Use either the Knob or the Up/Down Arrow keys to select the EDIT sub-menu,
