Front Panel Controls

Front Panel Controls

The power supply is shipped ready to operate in local mode. The factory default power-on setting is 0V, 0A with the DC output turned off.

This section describes the function keys, menu options, and control knobs that you use to operate the power supply. (Additional details about the front panel keys, control knobs, and display annunciators are provided in Section 1, “About The XDC Power Supply”.)

The next section (“Power Supply Operation” on page 64) provides details about configuring and operating the power supply.

Function Eight function keys are located on the front panel. Each is described below. For the Keys purposes of simple front panel control, you should understand the function of the

LCL/RMT, OUT ON/OFF, VOLTAGE, and CURRENT keys.

1.VOLTAGE: Lets you pre-set a setpoint before enabling it. To pre-set a voltage setpoint, press VOLTAGE, use the Voltage knob or the numeric keypad to enter a value, and then press ENTER to enable it. (See “Set Voltage” on page 64.)

This output can be changed while the output is OFF.

2.CURRENT: Lets you pre-set a setpoint before enabling it. To pre-set a current setpoint, press CURRENT, use the Current knob or the numeric keypad to enter a value, and then press ENTER to enable it. (See “Set Current” on page 64.)

This output can be changed while the output is OFF.

3.STORE: Lets you save power supply settings. (See “Store User Settings” on page 77.)

4.OUT ON/OFF: This is a toggle key that enables and disables the power supply output. Normally, you should leave the power supply in its Output Off state when no load is attached or there is no need for DC output. (See “Turn Output On or Off” on page 65.)

When the Out On annunciator is illuminated, the output is on. When the Out Off annunciator is illuminated, the output is off.

5.LCL/RMT: This key lets you toggle between local and remote control. If the RMT annunciator is illuminated, press LCL/RMT to return control to the front panel, if local mode has been enabled by the controller. (See “Toggle Local/Remote” on page 74.)
