Trying out the instrument
This chapter describes some basic functions that you can perform with the
R&S
NGL/NGM.
Source and sink current
The R&S
NGL/NGM power supply series are 2 quadrant power supplies
which may both source and sink current. When the voltage across the out-
put terminal exceeds the set voltage, current flows into the instrument. The
default behavior "Auto" can be configured in output menu, see section "Out-
put mode" in the User Manual.
On the display, sink mode is shown as negative current. See also
