3 Power Distribution Test Element
3.1 Introduction
Within this test the user has the opportunity to determine the power performance of an ESU over a desired range
of loads across its electrodes.
The user must define a desired power value with a specific load for every power measurement to be made. This
is achieved through the custom setup dialog.
The user must also define the acceptable deviation to the desired power performance, facilitated on the expected
results dialog.
If one measurement fails to meet these limits then the test will fail.
3.2 Custom
setup
3.2.1 Software
Settings
The software settings are displayed in the left of the custom setup dialog.
Enable Skip Button
If set to False (check box clicked so that no checkmark is displayed) the Skip
button in the Test Guide (see section 7.1) for this test will be disabled.
Enable NA Button
If set to False (check box clicked so that no checkmark is displayed) the NA
button in the Test Guide (see section 7.1) for this test will be disabled.
Report Crest Factor
The measured crest factor to be shown in the final report.
Report Current
The measured current to be shown in the final report.
Report Peak-to-peak
voltage
The measured Peak-to-peak voltage
to be shown in the final report.
3.2.2 Hardware
Settings
The hardware settings are defined in two distinct parts. The first of these is found on the left of the custom setup
dialog within the test settings box.
Delay
This is the delay between the changing of the loads and taking a power measurement.
Mode
Defines the mode that the ESU is to be in. The mode determines the type of waveform applied
to the electrodes.
