2.1 Output summary
The power supplies provide a floating output. The output rating of the
T3PS16081P is 0-16 V / 0-8 A, while the output rating of the T3PS30051P is 0-
30 V / 0-5 A. There are two modes of output: constant voltage (CV) and constant
current (CC). There are two types of operation, two wire mode and remote sense
mode.
Constant voltage output / constant current output:
In the constant current mode, the output current is a set value which can be
controlled by the front panel. The user interface displays the output mode is ‘CC’
and the current is still at the set value. At this time, the voltage is lower than the
set value. When the output current is less than the set value, the constant
current mode will switch to constant voltage mode automatically.
In the constant voltage mode, the output current is less than the set value, which
can be controlled by the front panel. The user interface displays the output mode
is
‘CV’
and
the
voltage
remains
at
the
set
value.
When
output
current reaches the set value, the system switches to the constant current mode.
2-wire mode / remote sense mode:
When the power supply is set to the 2-wire mode, the display prompt shows the
working mode as “2-wire”. When the output is on, the instrument will detect and
display the output terminal’s actual output mode automatically.
In the remote sense mode, the prompt displays the working mode as “remote
sense”. When the output is on and the remote sense terminal connect to the
load, the instrument will detect and display the actual output.
