5.Turn the AC power switch to ON.
6.Turn the voltage control 1 or 2 turns clockwise.
7.Turn the current control slowly clockwise.
8.Compare the DVM reading with the front panel ammeter reading using I=V/R where I is the current, V is the DVM reading, and R is the DC shunt resistance. The minimum control range is from zero to the maximum rated output for the power supply model. The current mode LED turns on.
9.Turn the AC power switch to OFF.
10.Disconnect the DVM and the shunt.
1.Turn the front panel AC switch to ON.
2.Set voltage and current controls fully clockwise. Push the STANDBY switch to its IN position and check that the voltmeter reading falls to zero and the red S/D (Shutdown) LED turns on. Push the STANDBY switch once again to reset it to its OUT position. The S/D LED turns off and the voltmeter reading returns to its previous value.
3.Press the STANDBY switch to its IN position.
4.Press the OVP CHECK switch and check that the voltmeter displays approximately the
5.Turn the OVP SET potentiometer
6.Press the STANDBY switch to its OUT position.
7.Press the V/I CHECK switch and check that the voltmeter and ammeter display the power supply output ratings.
8.Turn the front panel AC power switch to OFF.
