-Enabled output, power supply in Constant Voltage mode: Press the PREV button and
then rotate the CURRENT encoder knob. The CURRENT meter will show the pro-
grammed Output Current for 5 seconds after the adjustment has been completed, and
then will return to show the actual load current.
-Enabled output, power supply in Constant Current mode: Rotate the CURRENT encoder
knob to adjust the Output Current.
4. Adjustment resolution can be set to Coarse or Fine adjustment. Press the FINE button to se-
lect between the Coarse and Fine resolution. The FINE LED turns On when the resolution is
set to FINE.
5.2.3 Automatic Crossover
If the power supply operates in Constant Voltage mode, while the load current is increased to
greater than the current limit setting, the power supply will automatically switch to Constant Cur-
rent mode. If the load is decreased to less than the current limit setting, the power supply will
automatically switch back to Constant Voltage mode.
5.3 OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION (OVP)
The OVP circuit protects the load in the event of a remote or local programming error or a power
supply failure. The protection circuit monitors the voltage at the power supply sense points and
thus provides the protection level at the load. Upon detection of an Over Voltage condition, the
power supply output will shut down.
5.3.1 Setting the OVP level
The OVP can be set when the power supply output is Enabled (On) or Disabled (Off). To set the
OVP level, press the OVP/UVL button, so that the CURRENT meter shows “OUP”. The
VOLTAGE meter shows the OVP setting level. Rotate the VOLTAGE encoder knob to adjust the
OVP level. The display will show “OUP” and the setting value for 5 seconds after the adjustment
has been completed, and then will return to its previous state.
The minimum setting level is approximately 105% of
the set Output Voltage, or the value in Table 7-6,
whichever is higher. The maximum setting level is
shown in Table 5-1.
To preview the OVP setting, press the OVP/UVL
pushbutton so that the CURRENT display will show
“OUP”. At this time, the VOLTAGE display will show
the OVP setting. After 5 seconds, the display will re-
turn to its previous state. Table 5-1: Maximum OVP setting levels
5.3.2 Activated OVP protection indications
When the OVP is activated the power supply output shuts down. The VOLTAGE display shows
“OUP” and the ALARM LED blinks.
5.3.3 Resetting the OVP circuit
To reset the OVP circuit after it activates:
1. Reduce the power supply Output Voltage setting below the OVP set level.
2. Ensure that the load and the sense wiring are connected properly.
3. There are four methods to reset the OVP circuit.
a) Press the OUT button.
b) Turn the power supply Off using the AC On/Off switch, wait until the front panel display
turns Off, then turn the power supply On using the AC On/Off switch.
c) Turn the power supply output Off and then On using the SO control (refer to Section 5.7).
In this method the power supply should be set to Auto-Restart mode.
d) Send an OUT 1command via the RS232/RS485 communication port.
