Figure 4-6 Conceptual Diagram of Output Status
3. Operation
1. Standby status
Pressing the STBY key sets Standby status.
In Standby mode 0, the load is isolated.
In Standby mode 1, only LO OUTPUT is connected.
2. HiZ Suspend status
Pressing the SUSPEND (SHIFT + OPR) key or pressing the OPR key in Operate status sets
Suspend status. The OPR indicator blinks. This is the status for LoZ/HiZ switch OFF with OPR/
STBY relay ON.
As the output status is high resistance, it rarely affects the load.
