Using Over Voltage Protection (OVP)

Using Over Voltage Protection (OVP)

The OVP circuit protects the load in the event of an analog programming 
error, an incorrect voltage control adjustment, or a power supply failure. 
The OVP circuit monitors the output voltage at the output of the power 
supply and will disable the output whenever a preset voltage set point is 
exceeded. You can set the preset voltage trip point by using the mode 
control knob on the front panel or via one of the remote programming 
interfaces. 
To prevent accidental tripping of the OVP while setting up, the firmware 
will prevent the OVP set point from being less that 105% of the voltage 
set point when in local set point control mode. When the XTR is in VAP 
mode for defining voltage set point the set point limitation will be based 
on the VAP input signal level. The user should note it is possible to trip 
OVP in this mode if the OVP is configured when the analog programming 
source is off.
When the user attempts to configure an OVP setpoint that is less than 
105% of the voltage set point via the front panel the set point will stop 
allowing the value to decrement. If the user attempts to configure an OVP 
set point that is less than 105% of the voltage set point via SCPI a -221, 
"settings conflict error" will be pushed onto the error queue.
