Operating Mode Description
There are four basic operating modes: constant current (CC),
Constant Resistance (CR), Constant Voltage (CV/CV+CC) and
Constant Power (CP). All channels operate using any of the modes.
Each mode has a number of configurable options including slew
rate, levels, protection modes, Go/NoGo and extensive save
options.
Constant Current Mode
Background
In Constant Current Mode the load units will sink
the amount of current programmed. Regardless of
the voltage, the current will stay the same. There
are two ranges in CC mode: High and Low. There
are two main modes in CC mode: Static and
Dynamic. Static mode can be used for stability
tests and dynamic mode can be used to test
transient load conditions.
Go/NoGo is supported for both High and Low
range as well as Static and Dynamic mode.
