6.2.4.
Device self-test
The external control signals for controlling device on/off must be
inactive and all circuit breakers must be switched on.
After switching on the circuit breakers, all LEDs must illuminated for
approx. 0.5 s and the DSP controller starts a device self-test that is
completed after approx. 5 seconds.
In multi-unit operation the system is also configured and the
communication between the power supply devices connected is
checked for correct function.
Self-test OK
Green POWER light emitting diode illuminates continuously. Device is
ready for operation. State machine changes to the READY state.
For further information see TopCon TC.GSS manual
Self-test not OK (error)
Red light emitting diode illuminates or flashes.
In this case the state machine changes to the "Error" state. Using the
software application “TopControl” and a PC, more detailed information
on the causes of the error can be requested via the RS-232 interface
and the necessary corrective actions can be taken.
For further information on errors, see TopCon TC.GSS manual.
6.2.5.
Function test
With the mains voltage switched on, the control signal VOLTAGE_ON is
activated and the set value signals specified for current and/or voltage
applied.
After the activation of VOLTAGE_ON, the output voltage is switched on
and regulated to the set values specified.
The device is in the RUNNING state, one of the three LEDs CV, CC,
CP illuminates.
Now the output voltage or current can be checked to ensure it matches
the set values.
Please note that, depending in the configuration of ramp functions, the
set values specified may in some circumstances only be reached after
the related ramp functions have been completed.
