5.3.3 Parallel Tracking Mode
In this mode, the positive output terminal of the master gets connected internally to the
positive output terminal of the slave and the negative output terminal of the master gets
connected to the negative output terminal of the slave. The output voltage will be the same
as the master set value and the output current is twice the set master output current.
1. Pull the current adjustment knob of the master. The red LED and the red CC LED of the
slave output will light up to indicate parallel tracking mode.
2. Turn both the slave voltage adjustment knob and current adjustment knob clockwise
to maximum.
3. Set the output voltage with master voltage adjustment knob. The output current will
be twice that of the set master output current.
In parallel mode of operation, connect the appropriate load between the positive terminal
and negative terminal of the slave or between the positive terminal of the master and
negative terminal of the slave.
