To Prepare the Power Supply for Use

The following steps help you verify that the power supply is ready for use.

1Check the list of supplied items.

Verify that you have received the following items with your power supply. If anything is missing, contact your nearest Agilent Technologies Sales Office.

One appropriate power cord for your location.

One User's Guide.

This Service Guide.

Certificate of Calibration.

2Verify that the correct power-line voltage setting is selected and that the correct power-line fuse is installed.

The line voltage is set to 100, 115 or 230 Vac from the factory according to the input power option selected when you ordered the power supply. Change the voltage setting if it is not correct for your location (see the next page for detailed information). For 100 or 115 Vac operation, the correct fuse is 4 AT (Agilent part number 2110-0996) and for 230 Vac operation, the correct fuse is 2.5 AT (Agilent part number 2110-0999).

3Connect the power cord and turn on the power supply.

A power-on self-test occurs automatically when you turn on the power supply. The front-panel display will light up while the power supply performs its power-on self- test. After performing the self-test, the power supply will go into the power-on / reset state; all outputs are disabled (the OFF annunciator turns on); the 15V/7A rage is selected (the +15V annunciator turns on); the knob is selected for voltage control. Notice that the OVP and OCP annunciators also turn on.

4Enable the outputs.

Press the Output On/Off key to enable the outputs. The OFF annunciator turns off and the 15V, OVP, OCP and CV annunciators are lit. The blinking digit can be adjusted by turning the knob. Notice that the display is in the meter mode. "Meter mode" means that the display shows the actual output voltage and current.
