CHANGING THE VIRTUAL MODEL

The virtual model Vi is very similar to the output setting and measurement examples; it has the
the identical open and close functionality. The middle three blocks set the password, then cause
the voltage limit and the current limit to be applied to the KLP. This is done using the Max Posi-
tive Current Limit and Max Positive Voltage Limit properties. As indicated in the earlier table
these are the setting nodes that are required to change the KLP virtual model.
