6.1 Recalibration

The purpose of recalibration is to reduce the difference between the set values and the displayed values on the LCD

display. Recalibration is only required when this difference is greater than 0.1 V for voltage or -0.01 A / +0.02 A for

current.

6.2 Troubleshooting

Keypad and Dial do not work

Check key lock symbol for lock state, unlock unit by pressing
then

key, otherwise switch the unit off and then back on to see if the prob-

lem persists.

No output power

Check the output for on/off symbol on the display. Press

then

.

Cannot get a high voltage

setting within the

rated maximum

Check the upper voltage limit setting by pressing

then

. Adjust the

maximum voltage limit with the

and

keys.

“OUT OF RANGE”

keeps appearing

Check if the setting is within the rated range. If this occurs during voltage setting, refer to trou-

bleshooting solution to the previous problem.

When keying in operations

the unit keeps exiting and

does not save inputs

Only 10 seconds are allowed for inputting and 3 seconds for operation mode settings.
