“Setting the output voltage mode
“Setting the output voltage range”
“Output voltage setup procedure
“Single-phase, three-wire output voltage setup procedure
“Three-phase output voltage setup procedure
The PCR-LE2 Series has the following output voltage modes: AC, DC, and AC+DC.
You can switch between modes when the output is off.
The AC voltage setting is shared between AC and AC+DC modes.
The DC voltage setting is shared between DC and AC+DC modes.
During three-phase output, only AC mode and AC+DC mode are available.
• AC mode
AC output is generated. “AC” and the frequency are displayed.
• DC mode
DC output is generated. “DC” is displayed.
• AC+DC modeAC+DC mode
Voltage waveforms in which AC has been superimposed on DC and voltage waveforms in which DC has been superimposed on AC are generated. “AC+DC” and the frequency of the AC component are displayed.

*1. If the output voltage mode is changed from AC or DC to AC+DC and the peak voltage of the resultant AC+DC waveform falls outside the -215.5 V to 215.5 V range (L range) or -431 V to 431 V range (H range), the DC voltage setting is forced to 0 V.
Setting the output voltage range
The PCR-LE2 Series has the following output voltage ranges: L and H.
The maximum output current varies depending on the output voltage range. The maximum output current of the H range is half of the maximum output current of the L range.
You can switch between settings when the output is off.
Output voltage range setup procedure
Press RANGE (SHIFT+8) to select the output voltage range.

The output cannot be turned on for approximately 0.6 ms after the range is switched (Busy state).
You can set the output voltage while output is on or off. The measured value is always displayed.
Set the voltage limit to prevent the PCR-LE2 Series from generating a voltage that is greater than is necessary.
Be sure to set the output mode (single-phase, three-wire output or two-phase output) before you set the voltage.
The PCR-LE2 Series output impedance is extremely low, so depending on the load, a current may flow even if the voltage is set to 0.0 V. Be sure to turn the output off or turn the POWER switch off when you do not want any current to flow and before you connect a load.
• AC mode
Specify the AC voltage that you want to generate.
You can specify an output voltage as low as 0.0 V, but the voltage that is actually generated will not be lower than a value in the range of 0.1 V to 0.6 V (the value varies depending on factors such as the output voltage range and the temperature).
• DC mode
Specify the DC voltage that you want to generate.
• AC+DC mode
Specify the AC and DC voltages that you want to generate.
The AC voltage setting is shared between AC and AC+DC modes.
The DC voltage setting is shared between DC and AC+DC modes.
The set AC and DC voltages must meet the following conditions: (1) they must be within the setting range of the voltage limit and (2) the AC+DC waveform’s peak value must be within -431 V to 431 V when the H range is selected and within -215.5 V and 215.5 V when the L range is selected.
When the output is on
If the output is on, the measured value (output terminal voltage) and the setting are displayed. You can adjust the output voltage while viewing the output voltage setting and the measured value.
If you are using the rotary knob to set the value, you may increase or decrease the value too much because the display response is slow. Until you have an intuitive understanding of the display response speed, change the output voltage while viewing the voltage setting or make small changes to the output voltage.
To set the AC voltage, press V and then ACVOLT (F1).
To set the DC voltage, press V and then DCVOLT (F2).
