Ti>
Default:
100ms

{ 0…99:59h}
The overcurrent error is signalised after the response time
Ti>
, if the actual value of the current falls below the adjusted
overcurrent limit. The error notification vanishes if the actual
current has exceeded the threshold again for the time
Ti>
.
This overcurrent error is suppressed for T
0
= 100ms after the
output was switched on.
I>
Alarm: Overcurrent
This error shuts down the power output. An alarm has to be ack-
nowledged, before the power output can be switched on again.
I>
Warning: Overcurrent
The error is notified and remains until it is acknowledged and
not persistent anymore.
I>
Signal: Overcurrent
The analogue interface (IF-A1, optional) can signalise an
overcurrent or undercurrent at one of the digital outputs.

Step response
lets you configure the
supervision circuits for the dynamic and static comparison of
actual value and set value.

Note: The settling process of the power supply is determined by
the load. After a set value has changed, a certain time elapses
until the desired value is put to the power output. For instance,
it can last some seconds for the voltage to go down from 100%
to 0V at no or small load, because the output capacitors need
a time to discharge.
Supervision of a step response
The adjusted set value is compared with the measured actual
value. If there is a difference between them and this difference
is greater than the tolerance, the supervision will initiate an error
after the settling time
Tsr
. See figure below.
