Operating Modes
There are three operating modes available:
Front Panel
All settings are controlled from the front panel
Remote Control
All settings are controlled over one of the digital control interfaces. In
this mode, the front panel keys are all disabled except for the decimal
point key on the decimal pad, which may be used to revert to front
panel (LOCAL) mode unless this function is disabled over the digital
interface.
External Control
In this mode, the output of the power sources follows a user provided
analog input signal so neither front panel or remote interface
operations are available.
The first two modes can be selected under computer control and doing so will not affect the
output setting or interrupt the output. External mode can only be selected from the front
panel and will disrupt the output when switching between modes.
