General Information

What’s In This Manual

This chapter contains specifications that apply to the Single Input Electronic Load Family as well as information concerning options and safety requirements. The remaining chapters in this manual contain instructions for installing, operating, programming, and calibrating the Electronic Load as follows:

Chapter 2 "Operation Overview":

describes all of the Electronic Load’s functions and briefly describes how they can be

 

 

controlled locally at the front panel and/or remotely via a GPIB controller.

Chapter 3

"Installation":

includes turn-on checkout procedures as well as controller and application

 

 

connections.

Chapter 4

"Local Operation":

describes in detail how to operate the Electronic Load at the front panel.

Chapter 5

"Remote Operation":

provides an introduction to remote programming.

Chapter 6

"Calibration":

contains calibration procedures for the Electronic Load and gives sample calibration

 

 

programs. Yearly calibration intervals are recommended.

Reader Path

If you are a first-time user, start with this manual, paying particular attention to Chapter 2. After installation (Chapter 3), read Chapter 4 to learn front-panel operation. Programming users should then read Chapter 5 before going to the Programming Reference Guide. Experienced programming users will probably refer only to the Programming Reference Guide. The programming guide covers all of the programming details whereas Chapter 5 in this manual gives a few simple examples to help you get started in writing computer programs.

Options

Unless one of the following line voltage options is ordered, the unit is shipped from the factory set for 120 Vac, 48-63 Hz ac input power. If Option 100, 220, or 240 is ordered, the unit will be factory set for the appropriate line voltage. For information about changing the line voltage setting, see "Turn-On Checkout" in Chapter 3.

100:Input Power, 100 Vac, 48-63 Hz

120:Input Power, 120 Vac, 48-63 Hz

220:Input Power, 220 Vac, 48-63 Hz

240:Input Power, 240 Vac, 48-63 Hz

Additional options are:

020:Front panel input binding posts

908:One rack mount kit

909:One rack mount kit with handles

0L2: One extra Operating Manual and Programming Reference Guide

0B3: One Service Manual
