To Set the Number of Output Groups
The number of output groups is defined as the number of groups of preset voltage
and current values that the power supply outputs in each cycle. Press Groups and
use the numeric keyboard or the left/right direction key and knob to input the desired
value. The range is from 1 to 2048.
To Set the Number of Cycles
The number of cycles is defined as the number of times that the instrument performs
timing output according to the preset voltage and current. Press Cycles to set the
number of cycles to “Infinite” or use the numeric keyboard or the left/right direction
key and knob to input the desired value. The range is from 1 to 99999.
To Set the End State
The end state refers to the state of the instrument after it finishes outputting the
total number of groups of voltage and current values when the number of cycles is a
specified value. Press End State to select “Outp Off” or “Last”.
 Outp Off: the instrument turns off the output automatically after finishing the
output.
 Last: the instrument stops at the output state of the last group after finishing
the output.
Note: When the number of cycles is set to “Infinite”, the end state is invalid.
To Edit the Timer Parameters
You can edit the timer parameters manually or using the built-in templet.
To Edit the Timer Parameters Manually
You need to set P groups (No.0 to No.(P-1)) of timer parameters; wherein, P is the
number of output groups currently set. Only 6 groups of parameters can be
displayed on each page of the timer parameter list and you can press
or to
Tip
 The total number of groups in timing output = the number of output
groups*the number of cycles
 The power supply will terminate the timer function when the total number of
groups of outputs is finished. At this point, the state of the power supply
depends on the setting in “To Set the End State”.
