STEP PARAMETERS
Selects the number of Step Count (0 ~ 65535 & infinity) and different Step Modes (STEP, STEP AUTO, and STEP ONCE)
MEASURE SENSE
This feature allows selection of local sense or remote sense of voltage. Remote sense measures voltage at a different
sense point than the bus bars to prevent large voltage drops over lengthy wires. If the voltage reading between the remote
sense and bus bar differ by greater than a set threshold, Remote Sense Fault (RSF) will trigger and shutdown the input.
Note: The eLOAD’s voltage measuring points (positive and negative) can be configured to two locations. One is from the
power input terminals called Local; the other is from the remote sense terminal block in the rear panel called Remote
(Remote option is only available in certain models). The purpose of the Remote sense is for more accurate voltage
measurement when longer cables are used (large voltage drop caused by long cables).
PORT 0
A general purpose output port that generates a TTL compatible signal; active high (5V) when port is on and inactive low
(0V) when port is turned off. The PORT 0 feature can be used to control external devices such as a DC Contactor or a
relay. To enable PORT 0, simply follow LOAD CONTROL
Æ PORT 0 Æ ON.
EXTERNAL CONTROL
The external control function allows the eLOAD’s maximum range (L/M/H) voltage, current, power and resistance to be
scaled from 0 to 10 Volts. The external voltage signal will control the eLOAD to operate at the corresponding
current/voltage/resistance/power. Please see the table below for further details.
Note: AMREL eLOAD’s external analog programming accepts bipolar Vac < 10Vpp.
