DESCRIPTION. Five KLR Models and five KLR E-Series Models are available, as listed in Table 1.
The standard Models are GPIB and RS 232 compatible; the KLR E-Series Models (identified by the E
suffix) are GPIB and LAN (ethernet, LAN) compatible. The only difference between standard and E-
Series models is that LAN replaces the RS 232 interface on E-Series models. All models allow remote
analog programming as well as local control. For each model a multitude of limit models can be config-
ured. Limit models allow the unit to be configured to maximum settings below the rated voltage and/or
rated current. When a limit model is established the unit will not accept programming values above the
user-defined limits.
OPTIONS. The Rapid Output Discharge Circuit (RODC) option (suffix R) is available on all KLR mod-
els. This circuit rapidly discharges the output capacitance, thus significantly reducing response time to
reductions in output voltage (see KLR User Manual for details).
UNPACKING. This instrument has been thoroughly inspected and tested prior to packing and is
ready for operation. After careful unpacking, inspect for shipping damage before attempting to operate.
Perform the PRELIMINARY OPERATIONAL CHECK. If any indication of damage is found, file an imme-
diate claim with the responsible transport service.
