    Sorry about your bad luck, Greg. You might consider Linux for a computer that you rely on.

    M3M5 adam, glad that's straightened out. There is a tach, it's the frequency meter. :-) Rustystud, there are three phases, equally spaced in the 360 degree circle, 120 degrees apart. That's why 120-0-120 gives you 208. Here's a correct graph: Longer explanation here...

    Everything you said was good advice, but 3-phase power has the three legs 120 degrees apart. Using two of them to simulate single phase gives you 120v and 208v.

    I realize that's probably just a typo, but on an 003A, 240 is between L1 and L3 when set to 120/240 single phase.

    I'd start by measuring the voltage at the appliances that don't work correctly when they're having the problems. Maybe for some reason the voltage at these appliances is out of the range that they want to see. Another thing that comes to mind is that maybe only one side of the 240 is getting...
