10.7. SETTING RATIO CONTROL PARAMETERS

Enabling Ratio Control

Ratio control is achieved through the SETUP/CAL menu. Ratio Control is activated by selecting channel number one (1) and enabling it as master. After enabling channel one, the operator may assign the channels that will follow its signal by some factor.

Press the MODE key and then 3 + ENTER. Select channel one by pressing 1 + ENTER. Choose RATIO by pressing the 6 key + ENTER. Channel one (1) is enabled as the master when you press 2 +

ENTER.

After enabling RATIO control, a series of menus labeled SLAVE A, SLAVE B and SLAVE C will be displayed. These menus correspond to channels 2, 3 and 4 respectively. Each of the channels, 2 through 4, can be enabled or disabled individually. For example, pressing the 1 key + ENTER while SLAVE A is being displayed will eliminate channel two (2) from ratio control and allow channel two to work normally as an independent channel. Pressing the number 2 key + ENTER will make channel 2 the first SLAVE and an S will appear in the first column of line two on the display. Note that, if EXIT is selected at any time, the previous settings remain unchanged and the display is returned to its previously programmed configuration.
