4. Press
(
AUTO SCAN
)
button to perform Auto-scan. After the scanning is
finished, the result will come out like below.
5. The unit automatically measures the followings parameters: Vopen, Ishort, Pmax,
Vmaxp, and Imaxp. Based upon those parameters, the unit run simulation and draw
I-V / V-I curve and P-V / P-I curves in LCD.
6. Users can move the cursor to review each individual values along the curve.
There is a time delay before the unit performs the “Auto
Scan”. This time delay allows the light source to be
turned on before “Auto Scan” starts. Time delay can
be set in the SETUP menu.
Note: If the short circuit current (Ishort) exceeds 6A, Auto Scan will
not be performed. Please select Manual Scan and limit the ending
value of Scan to be less than 6A.
