PCR-M

Chapter 3  Operation

OUTPUT on phase

Set the OUTPUT on phase for AC mode.

When using the OUTPUT on phase control, also set the phase angle.

• OUTPUT on phase

ON (

):  OUTPUT on phase control enabled

OFF (

):  FREE operation (no phase control)

• Phase angle

0 deg to 359 deg: Range for phase angle setting

Averaging period

You can select the averaging period of the measured values (excluding the peak

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

current).

• Measured value averaging

ON (

):  Displays the moving average over approximately 3 seconds

OFF (

):  Updates and displays approximately every 0.3 s

Hold time of peak current

You can change the hold time of the peak current.

• Peak hold time

SHORT (

):  Updates approximately every 0.3 s

LONG (

):  Holds the peak value for approximately 5 seconds If a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

greater peak value is measured while holding, the new peak

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

value is held for approximately 5 seconds from that point.

Communication interface

The functions of the PCR-M can be expanded by installing an interface board to the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

option slot. However, the GPIB, RS232C, and USB interfaces cannot be used

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

simultaneously.

• Communication interface type

To activate the settings, the POWER switch must be turned off when at least 5

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

seconds elapses after changing the settings and then turned back on.

232 (

): 

RS232C (standard equipped)

488 (

):  GPIB (selectable only when the optional interface board is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

installed)

USB (

):  USB (selectable only when the optional interface board is
