Specifying the Operation Mode (E36233A and E36234A Only)
DO NOT use Coupling mode and Tracking mode when Auto-Series or Auto-Parallel mode is selected.
The Operation Mode allows you to specify the output capability when two independent outputs are being used.
–
Independent
: This operation supply two independent outputs capability to a maximum rating of +30 V, +20 A
(E36233A) and +60 V, +10 A (E36234A). In Independent mode, the instrument is at its default output state.
–
Auto-Series
: This operation increase the output voltage capability to a maximum rating of +60 V, +20 A
(E36233A) and +120 V, +10 A (E36234A). In Auto-Series mode, the instrument doubles the voltage across Output 1
and Output 2.
–
Auto-Parallel
: This operation increases the current capability to a maximum rating of +30 V, +40 A (E36233A)
and +60 V, +20 A (E36234A). In Auto-Parallel mode, the instrument doubles the output current on Output 1 and
Output 2.
–
Tracking
: This operation tracks the voltage for Output 1 and Output 2. See
for
details.
