Menu Structure
The CPS100 Series power sources use a hierarchy of menu screens divided into function
areas that allow full control over output settings, modes of operation, system parameters
and several special test functions.
There are three levels of nested menus under the Main Screen. The Main screen is always
the first screen displayed after the power source is turned on. All sub screens can be
accessed using the MENU and MAIN keys in combination with one or more on-screen soft
keys.
The figure below shows the entire menu system at once. Each section will be covered in
subsequent sections in more detail.
