When the APS is first turned on, it may take about 30 seconds or so to initialize the
instrument before it is ready for use.
Set the Output Priority Mode
You can select either Voltage priority or Current priority mode.
Voltage priority mode is used when you want the output voltage to remain constant. The output
voltage will remain at its programmed setting as long as the load current remains within the positive
or negative current limit setting.
Current priority mode is used when you want the output current to remain constant. The output
current will remain at its programmed setting as long as the load voltage remains within the voltage
limit setting.
Refer to Priority Mode Operation for more information.
Front Panel Menu Reference SCPI Command
Select Output\Mode.
Select either Voltage priority or Current priority. Then
press Select.
To specify current or voltage priority mode:
FUNC CURR|VOLT
When switching between Voltage priority and Current priority mode, the output is
turned off and the output settings revert to their Power-on or RST values.
Set the Output Voltage
When the unit is in voltage priority mode, the output voltage remains at its programmed setting as
long as the load current remains within its programmed positive or negative limit.
