Short detect voltage: Adjust this parameter to set the detect voltage level that will start the
shorting response.
Pinch current rise rate (shorting response): Adjust this parameter to set the current rise rate that
will be used to clear a short.
Arc reestablish volts: Adjust this parameter to set the detect voltage level that will end the
shorting response.
