5 Adjust the knob for the desired output voltage.
Check that the 
Limit annunciator still flashes. Set the knob for voltage control. 
The second digit of the voltmeter will be flashing. Change the flashing digit 
using the resolution selection keys and adjust the knob to the desired output 
voltage.
6 Return to the meter mode. 
Press   key or let the display time-out after several seconds to return to 
the meter mode. Notice that the 
Limit annunciator turns off and the display 
shows “OUTPUT OFF” message.
7 Enable the output.
The 
OFF annunciator turns off and the 8V* (or 25V**) or 20V* (or 50V**), OVP, 
OCP and CV annunciators are lit. Notice that the display is in the meter mode. 
In the meter mode, the display shows the actual output voltage and current.
8 Verify that the power supply is in the constant voltage mode.
If you operate the power supply in the constant voltage (CV) mode, verify that 
the 
CV annunciator is lit. If the CC annunciator is lit, choose a higher current 
limit.
Note   During actual CV operation, if a load change causes the current limit to be exceeded, 
the power supply will automatically crossover to the constant current mode at the 
preset current limit and the output voltage will drop proportionately.

You can use the resolution selection keys to move the flashing digit to the 
right or left when setting the current.
