CONSTANT CURRENT MODE :
To select a constant current output, proceed as follows :
a. Short circuit the output terminals of the power supply.
b. Connect a DC Ammeter OR a shunt-digital voltmeter
(DVM) combination across the output terminals,
using appropriately-guaged wire and hardware. The
recommended current ratings for the ammeter or
he shunt and the wire must be at least 10% more
than the output current of the power supply model.
The ammeter or shunt-DVM combination must be
rated better than 0.5% accuracy.
c. Turn the VOLTAGE controls clockwise. And Turn the
CURRENT controls slowly clockwise. The CURRENT
control range will be from minimum to maximum
rated output current. Adjust CURRENT controls for
desired output current.
d. Compare the ammeter reading with the front panel
ammeter reading. Or, compare the DVM reading with
the front panel ammeter reading using I = V/R, where
V is the DVM reading and R is the DC shunt
resistance.
e. Open output terminals and adjust VOLTAGE
controls for maximum output as required by the load
conditions.
If a load change causes the voltage limit to be
exceeded, the power supply will automatically cross
over to constant voltage output at the preset voltage
limit and output current will drop proportionately. In
setting voltage limit, allowance must be made for
high peak voltages which can cause unwanted
crossover. Turn the VOLTAGE controls clockwise and
observe both the front panel voltmeter and the
DVM. Compare the DVM reading with the front
panel voltmeter reading to verify the accuracy of the
internal voltmeter
c. The VOLTAGE control range will be from minimum
to the maximum rated output voltage. Adjust desired
voltage by adjusting the voltage controls.
d. Short circuit output terminals and adjust CURRENT
controls for maximum output current as required by
the load conditions.
