I-SET (Set Current, in Amps)
Can Only be Enabled by Panel button “I-SET”
Value of the Current Setpoint, in Amps, for when the unit is in CC Mode.
Rotate “Encoder” knob to desired value.
Use “◄” or “►” to switch selected multiplier.
OR
Enter the desired value using the Keypad.
ISET > OCP+200
➥Power Settings
OFF Prevent current from exceeding the OCP setting.
ON-CODE Allow current to exceed OCP setting - See conditions, below.
With 'ISET > OCP+200' OFF,
The unit will NOT allow the output current to go above the protection value, as
described in the ‘OCP’ Setting details.
Except, The time from output current reaching the OCP value and the PS
turning OFF (Protection Mode) could be delayed by up to 600ms; rather
than immediately as a more advanced/expensive PS_s would do.
With 'ISET > OCP+200' ON,
The unit WILL allow the output Current to go to whatever value is selected (I-SET),
regardless of the ‘OCP’ value.
However, since the value is above the ‘OCP’ value, Protection Mode will still
be activated, after the delay, IF the output current has not fallen back below
the OCP value.
This setup is for load devices with high in-rush current that lasts less than the delay time:
Output current can go over the OCP value for short bursts, to a MAXIMUM of ‘I-SET’, and
for less than the response delay, up to 600ms.
The response delay is due to a lack of a hardware-implemented ‘over current’ protection.
This is unavoidable with the RD60xx and cannot be corrected in Firmware.
IF the output current reaches ‘I-SET’ the (Hardware Controlled) fast change to CC mode
would lower the Voltage to maintain the I-Set maximum, until after the response delay.
