Function of the LOAD key
If you press the LOAD key when the load is turned off, the LOAD LED illuminates,
and the load turns on. If you press the LOAD key when the load is turned on, the
LOAD LED turns off, and the load turns off.

How to use the rotary knob
The rotary knob is used when setting values such as the current and resistance.
Turning the rotary knob to the right increases the value and turning it to the left
decreases the value. In addition, you can press the rotary knob to switch between
coarse adjustment and
fi ne adjustment. When the
↓
shown at the upper right corner
of the screen is large, coarse adjustment is active; when it is small, fi ne adjustment is
active. When setting a value, use coarse adjustment to set the value roughly, and
then switch to
fi ne adjustment to set value precisely.
• Fine adjustment changes values at 1/10 of the rate of coarse adjustment. When
you turn the rotary knob while pressing the LOCAL key in the coarse adjustment,
you can set the value more roughly.
■
Pop-up menu operation
Some keys show a pop-up menu when you press the keys. If you press the key again
while the menu is shown, the selected item switches. Each time you press the key,
the selected item switches one by one to the next item. When you
fi nish the key
operation, the item at that point is selected, and the pop-up menu automatically
clears.
■
How to use the SHIFT key
The SHIFT key is used to switch the function of each key. If you press a key without
holding down the SHIFT key, the function indicated above the key is enabled; if you
press a key while holding down the SHIFT key, the function indicated below the key
is enabled.
For example, if you press the SET/VSET key without holding down the SHIFT key,
the SET/VSET (indicated in black) function is enabled. If you press the SET/VSET
key while holding down the SHIFT key, the MENU (indicated in blue) is enabled.
This manual denotes the operation of pressing a key while holding down the SHIFT
key as SHIFT + (notation above the key). For example, when selecting the MENU
key, this manual denotes it as MENU (SHIFT + SET/VSET). In this case, press the
SET/VSET key while holding down the SHIFT key.
