Design
The setpoint value card is housed inside a small ER unit. The signals and voltages can
be accessed via 4 mm safety connectors. The unit is mounted in the cabinet frame of
the laboratory workstation or on the profile plate by means of four plug-in adapters.

Function
The functions of the setpoint value card are as follows:
■ programmable setpoint value generation
■ programmable ramp generation
■ cyclical sequence of setpoint values and ramps
■ Stop watch

Storing
The set values are stored by means of further detenting of the selector switch.

Stop watch
The stop watch function is selected via the menu item “FUNCTION”. The measured
time is displayed under the menu item “TIME”. The stop watch is started and stopped
by means of setting at input I1. The maximum measuring time is 100 hours.

Setpoint values
Up to 8 setpoint values can be set between the voltage range of -10 V to +10 V. These
can be activated internally or externally.
Internal activation is effected sequentially within the adjustable reversing time (0.01...50
sec.). The reversing time is identical for all setpoint values. The external control inputs
I1, I2 and I3 are inactive.
With switchover times of less than 0.01 sec. or more than 50.0 sec., the operating mode
“Advance switching setpoint values” is selected, where the internally selected setpoint
values W1...Wx are continually advanced, once the actived setpoint value has reached
its value.

Bit table

External activation is effected in any order according to the bit table via acti-
vation of the inputs I1, I2 and I3. The internal reversing time is inactive.

Ramps
The ramps are set as slope parameters
(seconds / Volt), i.e.: Setpoint value

■ low ramp value = large slope

■ high ramp value = small slope R1

The ramps in the quadrants of the cartesian R4 Time

R2
coordinate system are defined as follows:
1. Quadrant: positive slope of 0 V R3
2. Quadrant: negative slope up to 0 V
3. Quadrant: negative slope of 0 V
4. Quadrant: positive slope up to 0 V
