Set Power The POWER SETPOINT menu option lets you select the power output limit,
measured in watts. The following table shows how to access and work with the
Power Setpoint option. The power setpoint is normally at the maximum rating of the
power supply, in the factory default configuration and does not need to be re-set for
typical use.
Turn Output
On or Off
Use the OUT ON/OFF toggle key to enable or disable the power supply’s output.
When the output is disabled, the voltage and current at the output are zero regardless
of the setpoints.
When the output is on and you press OUT ON/OFF, OUTPUT OFF is momentarily
displayed. Then the readback is 0000V 0000A to indicate that output is zero, and
the OUT OFF annunciator illuminates. This is also known as Standby mode.
When you press OUT ON/OFF again, the OUT ON annunciator illuminates and the
power supply resumes normal operation, with the display showing a readback of the
output.
