The following steps check basic current functions with a short across the
power supply's output:
(1) Connect a short across (+) and (-) output terminals with an insulated test
lead on this channel. Use a wire size sufficient to handle the maximum
current.
(2) Set the output voltage to the maximum rating on this channel.
(3) Turn on the channel output. Ensure the channel you used is in Constant
Current output mode.
(4) Set some different current values on this channel; check if the actual
current value displayed is close to the set current value, and to check if the
actual voltage value displayed is nearly zero.
(5) Check that if the output current can be adjusted from zero to the maximum
rating, When it is set to the maximum or minimum, a beep is heard,
indicating that the limit has been reached.
(6) Turn off the channel output and remove the short circuit from the output
terminals.
