Using the Measurement Functions
Meter View
Each output has its own measurement capability. Whenever the
meter view is displayed, the measurement system continuously
measures the output voltage and current. The measurement system
acquires a specified number of samples at a specified time interval,
and averages the samples. The default meter view displays all four
outputs.
A single-output view displays more information about the selected
output. Press the Meter View key to toggle between the two views.
Measurement Ranges
Some power modules have multiple voltage and current measurement
ranges (see chapter 1 under “
Power Module Capabilities”). To specify a
measurement range, press the Meter View key, then press Properties.
Selecting a lower measurement range provides greater measurement
accuracy, provided the measurement does not exceed the range. If the
measurement exceeds the range, an “Overload” error will occur.
For information about compensating current measurements during
voltage transients, see chapter 5 under “
Dynamic Current Correction”.
