2.  Power on the instrument 
After the instrument is connected to the power source, press the Power key 
 on the front panel to power on the instrument. 
 
3.  Set channel parameters 
Press CC to enter the main interface of CC mode, as shown in Figure 2-3
. At the 
top of the main interface, "CC" and "STATIC" are active. Of which, "STATIC" is 
highlighted. 
 
 
Figure 2-3 Main Interface of CC Mode
 
 
In CC mode, you need to set the following parameters: Current, Range, Slew, 
Von, V_Limit, C_Limit. 
 
Set Current 
The constant current value in CC mode. The default unit for the current is A. 
(1)  In the main interface, press Current to switch the parameter focus to 
"Current". 
(2)  Enter a value by using the numeric keys, arrow keys, or the knob. For 
setting methods, refer to the descriptions of the help information or refer to 
the descriptions in "Parameter Setting Method". 
 
 
Set Range 
The working ranges of current in CC mode are as follows. Different models have 
different ranges. 
DL3021/DL3021A: low range (0 to 4 A); high range (0 to 40 A) 
DL3031/DL3031A: low range (0 to 6 A); high range (0 to 60 A) 
(1)  In the main interface, press Range to switch the parameter focus to 
"Range". 
(2)  Press Range to switch the current working range. You can also use the 
Left/Right arrow key or the knob to switch it.  
In CC mode, when the set load current is greater than the current output 
from the DUT, short circuit occurs to the DUT.
