2-2. Basic Configuration 

The basic configuration settings are the common configuration 
settings that are used for each operating mode. After selecting a 
basic operating mode (CC, CR, CV or CP mode), the slew rate, 
switching mode, response rate and other common parameters should 
be configured.  

2-2-1.  Select the Switching Function  

Description 

The LSG Series has two switching modes, static 
and dynamic. The switching modes allow the 
LSG Series to switch between two preset levels. 
Static mode can only switch between the two 
levels manually, while Dynamic mode switches 
between each level automatically based on a 
timer. 

  Static mode: A Value, B Value 

  Dynamic mode: Level1, Level2  

When the unit is set to static mode, only one 
value (A Value or B Value) can be active at a 
time. The active value is shown in the Operation 
Status Panel.
