ESTABLISHING A MINIMUM PROCESS VOLTAGE

PROCESS → MONITOR → PRC_VOL → PRC_VOL
This menu lets you establish a minimum process voltage. To use this feature, you
must first enable it and then establish a desired threshold limit. With the process
voltage limit feature enabled, the Pinnacle unit waits for the output voltage to first
exceed the limit. Once the limit is exceeded, output will remain on until you turn the
output off or until the voltage falls below the established limit. If the voltage falls
below the limit, output will turn off and error message E010 will appear on the
display.
To enable and set the process voltage level:
1. Press PROCESS → MONITOR→ PRC_VOL → ENABLE.
2. Rotate the MODIFY knob to select Yes or No.
3. Press ENTER to accept and exit.
4. Press the LEVEL soft key.
5. Rotate the MODIFY knob to select a process voltage level.
6. Press ENTER to accept and exit.

SETTING AN OUT-OF-SETPOINT TIMER

PROCESS → MONITOR→ SETPT
Use this option to enable and set an out-of-setpoint timer. This function lets you
indicate how long you want the power supply to tolerate an out-of-setpoint condition
before it shuts off output. An out-of-setpoint condition occurs whenever output moves
out of a range determined by your selected setpoint. The out-of-setpoint function
operates in all three regulation modes.
Note: In units without master/slave cards, out-of-setpoint detection is disabled during
arcs (including short circuits at the supply's output). However, when a master/
slave card is installed, arcs (and short circuits) that are long enough to affect
filtered readings (100 ms or longer) will cause an out-of-setpoint indication.
For a stand-alone unit, the out-of-setpoint limit is 0.4% of full scale or 2.0% of
setpoint, whichever is greater.
