the maximum output current of the unit under test does not exceedthe range of maximum current that the
DC load can absorb.
From the loading and unloading constant voltage mode, press the
Shift+1(V_Level)
keys, and the
load will go back to the standard constant voltage mode.
4.1.3.3 SoftStart Constant Voltage Mode
Softstart constant voltage mode enables the DC Electronic Load to function as a condensive load,
simulating electric capacity which is in direct proportion tothe rise time of the softstart. In this mode, the
LED driver under testwill avoid damage from a current strike.

Diagram 4.8 SoftStart Constant Voltage Mode
When the
Shift+2(S_Start)
keys
are pressed
in standard constant voltage mode, the DC Load will
enter the soft start constant voltage mode. The VFD display will show
RISING TM=xxxxxxxxvmS
indicating the current rise time set. Press the numeric keys and decimal point key to enter the rise
timedesired, and thenpress the
Enter
key to confirm the setting. Now the DC Load will be in the softstart
constant voltage mode.
If the input state is
OFF
, then the upper right corner of the VFD display will say
OFF
. Press the
On/Off
key to change the input state to
ON.
. Now the upper right corner of the VFD display will show either
CV_S
or
Unreg
.
CV_S
means the load has been successfully set withthe desired constant voltage value;
Unreg
means the DC load couldn
’
t accept the selected constant voltage value. Checkto see that the LED driver
under test has been correctly connected and turned on; also assure thatthe maximum output current of the
LED driver is within the range of the maximum current that the DC load can handle.
From theloading and unloading constant voltage mode, press the
Shift+2(S_Start)
keys andthe DC
Load will revert back to the standard constant voltage mode.
Note
: The rise time that is set will be automatically regulated as value set rounded up to a whole
number multiplied by 20
μ
S.
4.1.4 Constant Power Operation Mode (CW)
In this mode, the DC Electronic Loads will consume a set constant power. Please refer to the Diagram
4.9. Asthe load's input voltage value increases, the load input current will decrease
