Set the front panel controls to: 
 

a. Power Switch - OFF 
b. Output Voltage Switch(s) – 0 (205B 
only). 

 

c. Multi Turn Digital Dial - 000 (fully 
counterclockwise)

Set the LOCAL/REMOTE (ANALOG/ 
DIGITAL) rear panel switches (205B only) to: 

 

a. LOCAL for local front panel 
operation.

 

b. REMOTE/ANALOG for remote 
analog operation.  Note: Selecting the 
REMOTE control will override all local 
front panel controls of the output. 

 

c. REMOTE/DIGITAL for Computer 
Programming if equipped with a CBNY 
option.  Reference Section 2.7. 

Plug the line cord into the power line with a 
three-wire IEC receptacle to maintain proper 
case ground. 

WARNING!

This unit is equipped with a 

three-wire grounded line cord.  This must be 
used with a three-wire receptacle where the 
"third wire" is connected to earth ground; 
otherwise personal injury or death may occur.

Connect the output of the Series 230 to the 
circuit.  Use a properly rated shielded cable with 
the supplied HV output connector to insure good 
circuit connections and safe operation.  Refer to 
Section 2.10. 

WARNING!

 Prior to connecting or removing 

any equipment from the High Voltage power 
supply, always return the Output Voltage 
Control(s) to 0V prior to applying or removing 
power.  External circuits may retain voltage 
after controls are set to zero.  Discharge any 
residual voltage before connecting or removing 
any equipment. 

2.6 LOCAL OPERATION 

Turn POWER - ON to the instrument.  Slowly 
increase the output voltage using the appropriate 
Voltage Control(s) until the desired output level 

is reached.  Apply power to the load by 
switching the High Voltage - ON.  The output 
will quickly reach the value set by the controls.  
Full stability will be achieved after 
approximately 30 minutes. 

2.7 REMOTE OPERATION

PROGRAM CONTROL SWITCH: 
Before the Series 230 can be remotely 
programmed, the instrument must be configured 
by setting the rear panel PROGRAM 
CONTROL SWITCH (S102) to the REMOTE 
ANALOG position (206B is only programmable 
through the rear panel and therefore S101 is 
omitted).  All monitoring and enable functions 
are active, independent of the S102 switch, as 
are the front panel meters.  When in remote 
mode the front panel controls are inactive. 

REMOTE PROGRAMMING:
The high voltage output can be remotely 
programmed from either an external voltage 
source or with an external potentiometer using 
the internal reference voltage source (Pin 4).  A 
0 to +5Vdc programming voltage applied to Pin 
6 of J107 (PROGRAMMING/MONITOR) 
connector jack on the rear panel will remotely 
program the high voltage output from zero to 
maximum output.  Programming can also be 
accomplished using a potentiometer connected 
between Pin 4 (+5Vdc), Pin 7 (GND) and with 
the wiper connected to Pin 6 (PRGM INPUT).  
The potentiometer should be a low temperature 
coefficient wirewound or cermet type, 5k

:

 to 

20k

:

 resistance values.  The power supply 

output will be proportional to the programming 
input.  The programming input impedance is 
greater than 1M

:

. TABLE 2.1 below lists the 

PROGRAMMING / MONITOR connector pin 
designations.  The accuracy of the remote 
programming is detailed in the specifications.
