Parallel Operation
The PEL-3000 series can be connected in parallel to increase the
total power capacity of a single unit.
The PEL-3000 series can operate with up to 5 units in parallel. A
single unit is designated as a master unit and any other connected
units as slaves.
Only units of the same type and rating can be used in parallel or
alternatively, the PEL-3211 booster pack can be used as a slave with
the PEL-3111.
When a master unit is used in parallel mode, to ensure stability, the
response speed will drop down to 1/2 if it was originally 1/1. You
can however, reset the response speed back (or to another value) in
the Main>Configure menu.
