Configure Voltage Slope
The power supply has the capability of controlling the slope of the output voltage during
changes between voltage settings. Timings can be configured for both the rising and falling
edge between voltage output transitions.
To illustrate this feature and provide configuration instructions, follow the example below.
Suppose you want to simulate the voltage signal below by manually setting the voltage from 5 V
to 10 V over a span of 5 seconds, then manually changing it to 1 V and have it decrease from 10
V to 1 V over a span of 10 seconds. This can be done by configuring the rising and falling edge
timing.
Follow the steps below to configure the voltage slope to simulate the voltage output signal
above.
