3.3 Channel Hardware Parameters

Channel Hardware parameters define the digital-to-analog (DAC) functions, sensor
type, as well as the shutter and crucible outputs for the specified Channel.

Channel Hardware definition is done by pressing the F1 function key on the
Channel Parameters display. Selecting F1 brings up the Channel Hardware
parameters display as shown in

3.3.1 Channel Hardware Parameters Definition

NOTE: All Hardware parameters can be changed only when a channel is in the

STOP or READY state and is not crystal switching on the channel.

SOURCE VOLTAGE RANGE . . . . . 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (default = 3)

This parameter selects the control voltage range for the Channel being edited.
Permissible values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 for maximum output voltages of 10,
5, 2.5, -10, -5, and -2.5 Volts respectively. The default value is 3, for a control
voltage output of 0 to -10 Volts.

NOTE: This parameter is not available if DAC Option 3 (Rate & Thickness) has

been selected under General Parameters, DAC Output Option.
