Constant Voltage Operation
The U1401A can generate a constant voltage output in two
different ranges, namely ±1.5 V and ±15 V.
To select the constant voltage output function:
1
Turn the rotary switch to any one of the
(constant
voltage output) positions.
2
Press
SHIFT
to access the shifted operations of the keypad.
The
annunciator will appear on the display.
3
Press
MODE
to cycle through ±1.5 V, ±15 V,
±1.5 V,
±15 V,
±1.5 V, and
±15 V output
modes. Select either ±1.5 V or ±15 V for constant output
(or steady output, as opposed to
autoscan
or
autoramp
outputs, which will be discussed under
“Memory
Generation”
on page 31), depending on the voltage range
you require.
•
Unlike the autoscan and autoramp modes, there is no
special annunciator on the display to indicate constant
voltage (CV) operation.
4
With the instrument in standby mode (you should see the
annunciator on the display; if not, press
OUTPUT
), you
can adjust the amplitude of the output by pressing
and
to select the digit to be adjusted, and then
pressing
and
to adjust the value of the selected
digit.
5
Press
OUTPUT
to start the source output. The
annunciator will appear on the display.
