13.1 Test Setup
The following parameters and controls are available for executing the IEC 61000-4-29 test:
Parameter / Control Description
Nominal DC voltage
Opening this window will set the upper voltage range parameter to the
present steady state voltage setting of the DC supply. If required, a
new value can be entered for use during the test. At the end of the
test, the DC Supply will remain at this voltage level. The upper voltage
range value entered cannot exceed the selected voltage range. Note
that DC voltage variations to levels above 100 % of Unom may require
selection of the high voltage range.
The lower voltage range must be set to the lowest EUT rated Vdc. If
the EUT voltage range is less than 20 % of its low range value, a
single Vdc level may be used.
Sequence Available sequences for selection are:
Voltage Dips and Interruptions
Voltage Variations.
Either one or both sequences can be selected for execution.
Output Select
The output selection is shown to the left. If a 3 phase AC/DC power
source model is used, this field allows selection of output channel A,
B, C or all three channels (outputs). The same test sequence is
applied to all selected outputs. For single phase power systems, this
field defaults to channel A.
Start
Starts the IEC 61000-4-29 test using the parameters set by the user.
Test progress is shown at the bottom of the window.
Abort Aborts test in progress.
The required IEC 61000-4-29 test parameters must be entered in the test data entry grid before
running a test. Previously stored test files can be loaded from the File, Open menu. Test files
use a .429 file extension and only files with this extension can be loaded.
The CIGUI32 or CIGuiSII is distributed with pre-defined test parameter files for the generic IEC
61000-4-29 test sequences. Additional test parameter files e.g. for specific product categories,
can be created by the user by editing the data entry grid and saving the new data under a user-
specified name. The following parameters and controls are available for executing the IEC 61000-
4-29 test:

The lower voltage range must be set to the lowest EUT rated Vdc. If
the EUT voltage range is less than 20 % of its low range value, a
single Vdc level may be used. If the user selects only one of the two
DC levels and the delta between them exceeds 20 % of the low DC
range, a warning message will appear notifying the user of this
condition. As a rule, both voltage must be selected for testing when
this prompt appears.
Sequence Select
Available sequences for selection are:
Voltage Dips and Interruptions
Voltage Variations.
