Description

NORMAL

Setpoint is set using standard Ethernet communication

WAVE

Setpoint is taken from the internal function generator module

AIN

Setpoint is set using analog input [-10V,+10V] (available only when optional board are installed - see Optional Boards)

SFP

Setpoint is taken from a dedicated custom command sent to SFP interface

Tip

  • When AIN mode is selected, the relative Analog input signal [-10V,+10V] is converted to the module full-scale value. So for example when a module has a full-scale of 150A - 10V, then in CC mode the +10V is is converted to +150A; otherwise in CV mode the +10V remains +10V.
