*1 Maximum continuous power available is derated linearly from 100% of maximum at 40ºC, to 75% of maximum at 50 ºC. *2 Conductance (S) = 1 / Resistance (¥Ø). The siemens is the SI derived unit of conductance, and the symbol is "S". *3 The set level is 10 times larger than the slew rate in CCL mode. *4 The actual transition time is defined as the time required for the input to change from 10% to 90% or from 90% to 10% of the programmed excursion. *5 Transient frequency depends on the time for high/low level and rising/falling edge. *6. Full remote control via RS232 with optional GPIB and USB(¿¹Á¤).
