Operating Instructions
Local Load Stepping
Local Load Stepping jumpers allows the loading of each of the six VPX power supplies independently. One jumper is
provided for each header to ensure that only one step is set at a time for each supply header. Table 3 below provides all the
load values at each header location when the jumper is placed on it.

Table 3
For example, to set a load of 30W on voltage Vs1= +12V, first locate the header next to silkscreen marking Vs1 +12V. Then
insert the jumper in the location labeled 30W. If no load is needed on the voltage Vs1 +12V then the jumper should be
inserted in the location labeled OFF.
Warning: Placing multiple jumpers on any header can damage the electronic load.
