NOTE
If the power supply is operated with remote sensing and either the positive or negative load wire is not connected, an internal protection circuit will activate and shut down the power supply. To resume operation, turn the power supply off, connect the open load wire, and turn on the power supply.
Load Considerations
Multiple Loads
The following figure shows multiple loads connected to one power supply. Each load should be connected to the power supply’s output terminals using separate pairs of wires. It is recommended that each pair of wires will be as short as possible and twisted or shielded to minimize noise
