Avera
g
e pro
g
rammin
g
step size. That is the smallest chan
g
e that can be obtained
either usin
g
the front panel keys or a controller.
PROGRAMMING RESPONSE TIME
The maximum time for the output to settle to a pro
g
rammed value within a settlin
g
band, after havin
g
finished executin
g
the settle command.
READBACK ACCURACY
Maximum error in the readback value of an output volta
g
e or current (at
calibration temperature
±
2
°
C).
REMOTE MODE (opposite of the LOCAL mode)
In this mode the power supply is pro
g
rammed remotely from your PC via the
GPIB.
REMOTE SENSING
A way of sensin

circuit action compensates for the
volta
g
e drop in the wires to the load up to a maximum of 1 volt total.
SOURCE EFFECT (line re

ulation)
The maximum chan
g
e in the steady state of the re
g
ulated output volta
g
e or
current, resultin
g
from any chan
g
e in the AC volta
g
e source within the specified
values.
