Constant Voltage Output

The series power supply provides three output modes: constant voltage (CV),

constant current (CC), and unregulated (UR). In CV mode, the output voltage equals

to the voltage setting value, and the output current is determined by the load;

whereas in CC mode, the output current equals to the current setting value, and the

output voltage is determined by the load. UR mode is the unregulated state between

CV and CC mode. This chapter introduces how to make the instrument operate in CV

mode.

Operation Procedures:

Connect the load to the channel output terminals (please refer to

Connecting the

Outputs

CAUTION

While making connections, pay attention to the polarity to avoid damaging the

instrument or the devices connected to the instrument.

2. Press the power key to start the instrument and the meter view appears.

Set the voltage

Method 1:

You can use the front-panel parameter input area to set the voltage.

a. Use the knob or arrow keys to select the voltage field in meter view or in

channel output settings interface.

b. Press the knob and the input box turns blue, indicating that the selected field

can be edited.

c. Use the left/right arrow keys to select the digit place and then rotate the knob

or use the up/down arrow keys to adjust the value in the selected place. You

can also directly set the voltage by using the front-panel numeric keypad. The

default unit is V.

d. Press the knob again to disable the editing mode.

TIP

In meter view, if you select a current "Set" field to edit, you can still set the voltage by using

the front-panel numeric keypad to set the value and then pressing the unit selection key

/ .

Method 2:

You can also use the touch screen function to set the voltage.
