| Procedure | Display | Explanation |
6. | Press 5, Enter | VOLT:PROT 5 | Programs the OVP to 5 volts, which is less than |
|
|
| the previously set output voltage. |
|
| 0.449V 0.145A | Because the OVP voltage entered was less than |
|
|
| the output voltage, the OVP circuit tripped. The |
|
|
| output dropped to zero, CV turned off, and Prot |
|
|
| turned on. |
7. | Press Shift, OV, | VOLT:PROT <22> | Programs the OVP to a value greater than the |
| <2, 2>, Enter |
| output voltage setting of the unit. This prevents |
|
|
| the OV circuit from tripping again when the |
|
|
| protection condition is cleared. |
8. | Press Shift, Prot Clear | <20.003V> | Clears the protection condition, thus restoring |
|
| 0.0034A | the output of the unit. Prot turns off and CV |
|
|
| turns on. |
9.Press Output on/off
10.Connect a jumper wire across the + and - output terminals.
Turn the output off.
Shorts the output of the unit.
11. | Press Output on/off. | 0.0005V | The CC annunciator is on, indicating that the | |
|
| <0.5005>A | unit is in constant current mode. The unit is | |
|
|
|
| sourcing output current at 10% of the maximum |
|
|
|
| rating (the default output current limit setting). |
12. | Press Current, <5>, | 0.0452V | Programs the output current to the selected | |
| Enter. | <5.002>A | amperes. | |
13. | Press Shift, OCP | 0.0005V | 0.0003A | You enabled the overcurrent protection circuit. |
|
|
|
| The circuit then tripped because the unit was |
|
|
|
| operating in constant current mode. The CC |
|
|
|
| annunciator turns off and the OCP and Prot |
|
|
|
| annunciators come on. |
14. | Press Shift, OCP | 0.0005V | 0.0003A | You have disabled the overcurrent protection |
|
|
|
| circuit. The OCP annunciator turns off. |
15. | Press Shift, Prot Clear | 0.0452V | Restores the output. The Prot annunciator turns | |
|
| <5.002A> | off. CC is on. | |
16. | Turn the unit off and |
|
| The next time the unit turns on it will be |
| remove the shorting wire |
|
| restored to the *RST or factory default state. |
| from the output terminals. |
