Setting the output protection state
The OVP and OCP features depend on the output protection
state function. The output protection state must be enabled
for the OVP and OCP features to be active in the circuit.
Disabling the output protection state will deactivate both the
OVP and OCP features even if a trip level is set for either
the OVP or OCP.
NOTE
The output protection state does not affect the over-voltage and
over-current limits.
CAUTION
• Disabling the output protection state may result in equipment
damage if an over-voltage or over-current condition occurs. It is
recommended to have the output protection state enabled.
• In the event that there is a large current over the system protection
values (Tabl e 4 -4 ), the U3606B will trip to protect itself even if the
triP option in Utility menu is set to “no”.
