3.  Set channel parameters in the guide interface 
Press Con to enter the Con guide interface, as shown in Figure 2-15
. In the 
guide interface, you can configure parameters in the parameter configuration 
list and view the configuration diagram at the left of the configuration list in the 
real-time manner. 
 
   
Figure 2-15 Guide Interface of Con Operation 
 
The parameters for the continuous operation mode include range, Level A, Level 
B, rising slew rate, falling slew rate, frequency/period, width/duty, and trigger 
source. 
 
Set Range 
Working range for the current in Con mode. Two ranges are available. 
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 guide interface, press the Up/Down arrow key to switch the 
parameter focus to "Range". 
(2)  Use the Left/Right arrow key or the knob to switch the current working 
range.  
 
Note: 
  The low range provides better resolution and accuracy at low current 
settings. 
  If the set current value is greater than the maximum value of the low range, 
you must select a high range. 
 
 
CAUTION 
Before switching the current range, please disable the channel input 
to avoid causing damage to the instrument or the DUT. 
 
Set A_Level 
The sink current toggles between a high value and a low value in Con mode. 
A_Level indicates a high value. The default unit for A_Level is Ampere (A). 
(1)  In the guide interface, press the Up/Down arrow key to switch the 
parameter focus to "A_Level".
