Remote sense can be used to help compensate for
long cable length. The longer the cable, the higher
the potential resistance and inductance, therefore
a short cable is best. Twisting the cable can help
reduce induced inductance and using the Vsense
terminals compensates the voltage drop seen
across the load leads, especially leads with higher
resistance. This is useful when used in CV, CR or
CP mode.
1. Turn the power off from the rear panel or put
the unit into standby mode.
2. Turn the power off from the DUT.
3. Connect the sense wires to the sense terminals:
Connect the positive sense (+S) terminal to the
high potential output of the DUT.
Connect the negative sense (-S) terminal to the
low potential output of the DUT.
