PROCESS → MONITOR→ TARGET → LIFE
To set the target life in 0.01 kWh increments:
1. Press PROCESS → MONITOR → TARGET → LIFE.
2. Rotate the MODIFY knob to select a target life between 0 and 15000.00 kWh
(The default is 0).
4 If you are rotating the MODIFY knob slowly, press the appropriate soft key to
indicate how quickly you want the display to increment the value (x1000, x100,
x10 or x1). Note: If you turn the MODIFY knob quickly, the counts per click
setting takes effect.
3. Press ENTER to accept and exit.
This function will also display how much target life is left as the counter decreases.
When the end-of-target-life is reached, the output display screen flashes "EOTL" and
the Pinnacle unit continues running until a normal off command is received.
Note: The Pinnacle unit cannot turn back on until the target life is reset or until the
target status is disabled or a new active target is selected.

Setting Process Limits

PROCESS → LIMITS
This menu lets you control user-selectable operating limits for the Pinnacle unit:
maximum output (voltage, current, and power).
Note: Before entering a maximum output limit, consider your system's output
impedance and consider how your selected power limits will interact. The unit
will limit output when output reaches the first applicable limit.
Note: You cannot set a setpoint greater than the corresponding limit in that regulation
mode.

SETTING A STRIKE VOLTAGE LIMIT

PROCESS → LIMITS → STRIKE
4-34
Active Panel (that is, when the Pinnacle unit is in host or local control
mode). Leaving the target bits open or leaving the User port pins
unconnected causes the target selection at the User port to default to 1.
