1. Connect J210 pin 6 (remote voltage program select) to J210 pin 8 (auxiliary
ground).
2. Connect the control voltage source between pin 14 (voltage program) and pin 13
(program return).
3. Vary the external voltage from 0-10 Vdc to cause the power supply output to
vary from 0-100% of rated output voltage.
