SETTING THE MAXIMUM LIMIT FOR OUTPUT CURRENT

PROCESS → LIMITS → CURRENT
This function lets you set a maximum limit for output current. The maximum
allowable value is the maximum rated output for the supply.
To set the user current limit:
1. Press PROCESS → LIMITS → CURRENT.
2. Rotate the MODIFY knob to select a value between 0 and the maximum rated
output current for the supply.
3. Press ENTER to accept and exit.
Note: Master/slave units will refresh to the maximum limit for current on power

SETTING THE MAXIMUM LIMIT FOR OUTPUT POWER

PROCESS → LIMITS → POWER
This function lets you set a maximum limit for output power. The maximum allowable
value is the maximum rated output for the supply.
To set the user power limit:
1. Press PROCESS → LIMITS → POWER.
2. Rotate the MODIFY knob to select a value between 0 and the maximum rated
output power.
3. Press ENTER to accept and exit.
Note: Master/slave units will refresh to the maximum limit for power on power

Setting Arc Handling

PROCESS → ARC
Use the ARC menu to implement arc-handling during your normal process cycle or
during both your process cycle and your target conditioning cycle (TCC). Selections
in the ARC menu let you establish arc-handling parameters for normal process runs.
In addition, the PROCESS menu lets you view arc density statistics.
Enabling the TCC algorithm places setpoint and arc handling under microprocessor
control, letting you achieve fast, automated target conditioning. Before enabling the
TCC algorithm, ensure that you have first entered a setpoint and set values for the
PROCESS menu parameters.
