Introduction

This chapter provides a quick test of the power module functions. See "Chapter 4 - Basic Power Module Commands" for more details of power module operation.

Note	These procedures assume you have checked and, if required, correctly set the following switches for each
	module:
	∙	the line voltage switch (see Figure 2-1)
	∙	the configuration switch (see Table 2-2)
	∙	the output connector Local/Remote switch

The procedures for doing this are given in Chapter 2.

Module Panel Display

The power module display provides the information shown in Table 3-1. There are no operating controls on the power module.
