Store Settings 

The instrument can store 10 set-ups in non-volatile memory; the parameters stored are voltage, 
current limit, OVP and OCP.  The output state and remote sense setting are not stored. 
To store a set-up press SHIFT, STORE to show the store locations and the currently saved set-ups 
on the 

Store

 screen. 

The store location to be used can be selected directly by pressing any key 0 – 9 or by scrolling to 
the appropriate store number in the list using the JOG SET control; the selected store is indicated 
by the square brackets 

[  ]

 at that location. Press OK to store the set-up at the selected 

location; the screen returns to the standard status display.  A full store can be overwritten with new 
settings.  At any time before the OK key is pressed the store function can be exited without saving 
a set-up by pressing ESCAPE or by waiting for the operation to time out.   

Deleting Stored Settings 

Any store can be returned to 'empty' as follows: press SHIFT, STORE, and select the appropriate 
store number as described in the Store Settings section above; at that point press  

·

 

 followed by 

OK to confirm the operation.  At any time before the OK key is pressed the delete function can be 
exited without erasing a set-up by pressing ESCAPE or by waiting for the operation to time out. 

Recall Settings 

To recall a set-up press SHIFT, RECALL to show the store locations and the currently saved set-
ups on the  

Recall

  screen. Each store location is displayed with its output voltage, current limit, 

OVP and OCP settings; the output status (on/off) and sense settings (local/remote) are not stored. 
Empty store locations are shown without data. 

The store location containing the setting to be recalled can be selected directly by pressing any 
key 0 – 9 or by scrolling to the appropriate store number in the list using the JOG SET control; the 
selected store is indicated by the square brackets 

[  ]

 at that location. Press OK to recall the 

set-up at the selected location; the screen returns to the standard status display. Settings may be 
recalled with the output on or off. 

Extra Functions 

Options for extra functions such as LOGIC CONTROL and ANALOGUE CONTROL/MONITOR, 
plus variations on some of the factory default functions, can be set by the user by using the # extra 
functions facility.  The complete list of functions is accessed by pressing SHIFT, # ; the required 
function can be selected directly by entering nn from the keyboard, where nn is the 2-digit number 
in the list below, or by scrolling to the appropriate function in the list using the JOG SET control; 
the selected function is indicated by the square brackets 

[  ]

 at that position in the list.  Press 

OK to initiate the selected function, following the on-screen prompts where appropriate.  At any 
time before the OK key is pressed the extra function can be exited without implementation by 
pressing ESCAPE or by waiting for the operation to time out.  

Selected functions are indicated by a  

  beside the code in the on-screen list. Note that the 

options within any decade group are mutually exclusive and selecting a function within any group 
will automatically deselect any previously selected function in that group, including the factory 
default option; for example, if 

#

 26 is selected, 20 -25 and 27 are all deselected.  

With the exception of functions 30/31 and 70/71 all extra functions are specific to a particular 
output and will only be changed for the output currently selected by the CONTROL keys; the extra 
functions can therefore be set differently for each output.  Functions 30/31 (buzzer) and 70/71 
(Tracking) apply to the whole instrument therefore changing the selection for output 1 will 
automatically change the selection on output 2.
