9.4.6.2 Front Panel Controls/Indicators
Power Switch and Lamp
A power switch turns the EOS on or off. A lamp above the switch illuminates when power is on.
Active Lamp
This lamp is illuminated when the EOS is operating with the power transformer and electronic
switches active for IEC1000-4-11 testing. During normal power source operation the lamp is off.
Fault Lamp
This lamp is illuminated when an overtemperature or an overcurrent condition has occurred in
the EOS. If a fault occurs during IEC1000-4-11 testing, the FAULT lamp will be turned on and
the EOS electronic switches will be turned off. The next time the controlling power source
attempts to change the EOS state, the test will be aborted, the FAULT lamp will be turned off, the
controlling power source will indicate an EOS error, and the EOS unit will be programmed to
normal (bypassing EOS) mode.
The overtemperature condition will be released when the internal circuits have sufficiently cooled.
An overcurrent condition may be reset by reactivating the EOS option from the iX controller 4-11
option screen.
Tap Select Switch (Second generation EOS1 only)
The EOS1 tap selection between the 70% and the 80% dip level taps is made using a toggle
switch on the front panel of the EOS1. If this toggle switch is not present, the EOS1 is a first
generation version. See Table 9-21 for revision details.
To use the 70% dip level, set the toggle switch in the70% position.
To use the 80% dip level, set the toggle switch in the 80% position.
9.4.6.3 EOS1 70/80 Tap setting change
Second generation EOS1 units are equipped with both a 70% and an 80% output tap. The
default configuration shipped from the factor is set to the 70% tap. This is the most commonly
used dip level for product standards. However, Edition 2.0 of the IEC 61000-4-11 test standard
does allow for a 80% dip level for which the alternate tap setting may be used. The EOS1 tap
selection between the 70% and the 80% dip level taps is made using a toggle switch on the front
panel of the EOS1. If this toggle switch is not present, the EOS1 is a first generation version.
See Table 9-21 for revision details.
To use the 70% dip level, set the toggle switch in the70% position.
To use the 80% dip level, set the toggle switch in the 80% position.
Note: When using the Cigui32 Windows GUI program to run IEC 61000-4-11 tests, select
the EOS1 tap setting on the IEC 61000-4-11 test screen to match the toggle switch
position. The GUI has no way to determining the switch setting on its own. If set
correctly, the Cigui32 program will use the EOS when the correct dip level is
programmed in the voltage dips data grid.
