Constant Power (CP) Mode
The load sinks a constant power in CP mode. The load current will change linearly
proportional to the input voltage to keep sinking a constant power (P = V x I), as
shown in Figure 2-11.
Figure 2-11 Constant Power (CP) Mode
Operation Procedures:
1.
Power on the instrument
Press the Power key
on the front panel to power on the instrument.
2.
Connect the DUT and the channel input terminals of the load
Connect the DUT and the channel input terminals on the front panel of the load
as shown in Figure 2-2.
CAUTION
While making a connection, the positive polarity of the load should
be connected to the (+) terminal of the channel output, and the
negative polarity of the load to the (-) terminal of the channel
output. A misconnection with the terminals may cause damage to
the instrument or the DUT.
3.
Set channel parameters
Press CP to enter the main interface of CP mode, as shown in Figure 2-12. At
the top of the main interface, "CP" and "STATIC" are active. Of which, "STATIC"
is highlighted.
