On three-phase ac sources, phase 1 is normally offset by 0° from the internal phase reference while
phase 2 and phase 3 are offset by 240° and 120° respectively. Therefore, synchronized transient events
will occur at the phase angle programmed for the phase 1 output, but at different phase angles on the
phase 2 and phase 3 outputs.
This is illustrated in the following figure, where the transient occurs at the 90° angle programmed for the
phase 1 output, but at 330° and 210° for the phase 2 and 3 outputs, because of the default offsets for
these outputs.

This example synchronizes a change at 90° on phase 1. First, access the
Voltage menu and program the immediate and triggered voltage levels,
followed by the voltage transient mode. Check that the

annunciators are all lit, indicating that commands will be sent to all three
phases. If not, press Phase Select until all three annunciators are lit.
Press Trigger Control. Press ô until you access the sync source command.
On the Entry keypad, press ° once to obtain PHASE. Press Enter.
Access the Trigger Control menu again and press ô to access the sync phase
reference parameter. On the Entry keypad, program a 90° phase reference by
entering 9 0 Enter.
Then press Trigger Control and Enter, followed by Shift Trigger.
