Handling the device
4. Operation
4.1 Control and display panel
4.1.1 Layout of the display
The display is seperated into areas for set values,
actual values, the output state, device status and the
current button assignments.
The button assigment field changes interactively
according to the user‘s selection and is indicated by
text or symbols which are dedicated to the buttons
beneath.
The upper left half of the display shows output volta-
ge relevant values in big font. Directly beneath is
the related set value. While the output is on, the text
„
CV
“ right next to the voltage actual value indicates
constant voltage operation.
The upper right half of the display shows output cur-
rent relevant values in big font. Directly beneath is
the related set value. While the output is on, the text
„
CC
“ right next to the current actual value indicates
constant current operation.
Beneath the voltage value area the actual output
power is indicated. The device has a power limit of
5000W which is not adjustable. In case this limit is
reached, „
CP
“ will be indicated. The power limiter
either effects the output voltage, if the device was in
CV
before, or the output current, if it was in
CC
.
The output state, status (alarms, warnings) and the
control location (see section 3.8) are indicated in the
lower right area of the display.
4.2 Selecting a voltage profile
Note: Switching voltage profiles is only possible during
output = off.
The voltage profile selection menu is accessed by the
button
in the main display.
Only the first voltage profile (here: 0..65V) offers full
output value adjustment.
The other profiles allow adjustment, but for the voltage
only within certain limits (see tables on page 23). The
buttons are used to select the desired profile,
which is then submitted with the
button. The
display will return to normal and the output values are
changed to the ones as adjusted in the profile.
