1.2 Output Checkout
The following procedures check to ensure that the power supply develops its rated outputs and properly responds to operation from the front panel.
1.2.1 Voltage Output Checkout
The following steps verify basic voltage functions without load.
1.Turn on the power supply.
2.Enable the outputs.
Press Out on/off key to let the ON annunciator and the CV annunciator turn on to light.
Notice: if the voltage value flash, then the power supply is in Set mode, ‘‘Set mode’’ means that the VFD display shows the setting output voltage and current. Or the power supply is in Meter mode, ‘Meter mode” means that the VFD display shows the actual output voltage and current.
3. Check that the
Set some different voltage values, then wait till the Meter mode to check if the VFD displayed voltage value is the same as the set voltage value, and to check if the VFD displayed current value is nearly zero.
4. Ensure that the voltage can be adjusted from zero to the full rated value.
1.2.2 Current Output Checkout
The following steps check basic current functions with a short across the power supply’s output.
1.Turn on the power supply.
2.Disable the output
Press key to ensure that the output is disabled. The ON annunciator is turned off.
3.Connect a short across (+) and
Warning: To satisfy safety requirements, load wires must be heavy enough not to overheat when carrying the maximum
4. Enable the output.
Press key to ensure that the output is enabled. The ON annunciator is turned on.
5.Adjust the voltage value to 1.0 volt.
Adjust the voltage to 1.0 volt to ensure the power supply is in CC operation mode. The CC annunciator will turn on.
6.Adjust the current value.
Set some different voltage values, then wait till the Meter mode to check if the VFD displayed current value is the same as the set voltage value, and to check if the VFD displayed voltage value is nearly
