2.0 Panel Layout
This section describes the DS-1000 photovoltaic I-V curve tracer in more detail.
The DS-Tracer generates a complete current-voltage (I-V) curve that
characterizes the photovoltaic system under test. Figure 7 shows the front panel
layout of the DS-1000. Each of the key components is described in detail in the
following section.
