1. A power control unit comprising:
- a first portion of memory configured to store data representing operational profiles for generating a power signal as a function of a parameter;
a mode controller configured to select an operational profile from the operational profiles to establish a selected operational profile;
a waveform control module configured to generate the power signal in accordance with the selected operational profile;
a second portion of memory configured to store data representing fault profiles that include thresholds for determining types of faults; and
a fault detector configured to;
detect a fault based on the fault profiles, and todetermine whether the fault is associated with a first subset of faults or a second subset of faults, and toperform a fault action.
