4. Turn on the electronic load; set the electronic load to work in CV mode and
adjust the voltage of the electronic load to the rated output voltage (please refer
to Table 1-1) of the channel (range) under test.
5. Turn on the digital multimeter; select DC voltage measurement function and set
the range to “Auto”. Make sure that the power supply is in CC mode. Read and
record the reading (U
0
, namely the voltage of the current sampling resistor) of
the multimeter.
6. Adjust the AC power supply to undervoltage state (namely the amplitude
reduces by 10%, refer to Table 2-6); read and record the reading (U
1
) of the
multimeter. Adjust the AC power supply to overvoltage state (namely the
amplitude increases by 10%, refer to Table 2-6); read and record the reading
(U
2
) of the multimeter.
Note: The upper limit of the overvoltage of DP800 series is 250Vac.
7. Calculate the voltage variations (namely the CC source effect, |U
1
-U
0
|/R
M
and
|U
2
-U
0
|/R
M
) and compare them with the specified specifications in Table 3-6.
8. Press the On/Off key corresponding to the channel under test at the front
channel to disable the output of the channel under test.
9. Repeat steps 1 to 8 to test the CC linear regulation rates of CH2 and CH3 until
finishing the CC linear regulation rate tests of all channels.
Notes:
 For the single channel model with multiple ranges of DP800 series (DP811A),
please first select a range and set the corresponding parameters of this range
in step 3 and then perform step 4 to step 8 to test the CC linear regulation rate
of this range. Then, repeat step 3 to step 8 to test the CC linear regulation rate
of the other range.
 For the channels that support the Sense function of DP800 series, please
connect DP800, AC power supply, current sampling resistor, electronic load
and multimeter according to Figure 3-2 and turn on the Sense function of the
channel after selecting the current channel in step 3.
