Section 7. Operation<br />

Option 10 of the configuration menu gives the PSU SHUT DOWN VOLTAGE<br />

menu (Figure 7-22). Enter the PSU input voltage level below which the<br />

<strong>PWS100</strong> will enter low power mode. Enter `0.0’ to disable this feature<br />

(default).<br />

NOTE<br />

This feature is usually used to protect batteries from deep<br />

discharge. There is a hysteresis of 0.9V applied. For example, if<br />

the <strong>PWS100</strong> goes into low power mode at 10V it will return to<br />

normal operation when the voltage rises to 10.9V. Current will<br />

be limited to about 120 mA at 9V. Communications are still<br />

possible and a message “PSU voltage too low nn.n”, where nn.n<br />

is the supply voltage, will be output every 60 seconds.<br />

7.4.4 Top Menu Option 5 (Password)<br />

Choosing option 5 from the SETUP menu brings up the PASSWORD menu<br />

(see Figure 7-23). Pressing enter deletes the password. To set a password, type<br />

up to 10 alpha-numeric characters and press enter.<br />
