Connect the HVLAB3000 to a spare USB port on your computer.

Open the HVLAB3000 Windows application.

6.4.1.1 USB Go

Press the USB Go button to enter USB remote control. The HVLAB3000 front panel

controls will be locked out and the front panel remote control LED will light and the high

voltage will switch on. If the high voltage was on when the USB Go button was pressed, it

will remain on at that voltage. If the HV output was off when the USB Go button was

pressed, the high voltage will switch on at near zero output.

6.4.1.2 USB Stop

Press the USB Stop button to leave USB remote control mode. The high voltage output will

be switched off and the remote control LED will switch off. Normal control will return to the

HVLAB3000 front panel.

6.4.1.3 set HV

Enter the desired high voltage and select the polarity using the radio buttons. The high

voltage will change when the SET HV button is pressed. It may take several seconds for

the high voltage output to settle to its new value.

6.4 remote control

6.4.1 USB control - the Windows application
