OPERATIONS

Ground Connection
Depending on the application, the power supply output terminals can be grounded in any one of the following grounding
conditions :

Negative ground – black (-) negative terminal is shorted with green GND terminal.
Positive ground – red (+) positive terminal is shorted with green GND terminal.
Floating ground – green terminal is not shorted with any of the output terminals.

Remarks:
When operating this power supply as a floating ground, high impedance leakage can exist between the power supply circuitry
and the chassis ground.

Basic Mode of Operation

This power supply is designed to operate as a constant voltage source or as a constant current source. Automatic crossover to
either mode of operation occurs when the load condition changes as following:
Constant Voltage (CV), Automatic crossover & Constant Current (CC)
The power supply functions as a constant voltage source (CV) as long as the load current is less than the preset current limiting
value. When the load current is equal to or greater than the preset current limiting value, the power supply will automatically
cross over to the constant current mode, voltage will drop, (CC) will show on the LCD display panel and it will operate as a
constant current source.
When the load current drops below the preset current limiting value, the supply returns to constant voltage (CV) mode.

Set the Output Voltage and Presetting Current Limiting Value (CC)
Turning the voltage or current knob to set your desired values.
Quick pushes on the knobs will move the decimal place for fast tuning.
Turn the knob when the desired number column is flashing otherwise you need to repeat quick pushes again.

One quick push on the current knob to see the preset current limiting value.

Precaution

Always use quick pushes to the voltage or current knob.

Do not push any of the knobs more than 3 seconds

Connection and Operation Procedure

1. After checking with the rating label plug in to AC mains.
2. Switch on the power supply and the LCD display should be on at the same time.
3. The (CV) icon should be shown on the display.
4. Turn to current volume knob  to maximum clockwise if you do not require lower Current limiting value, otherwise do the preset the
(CC) limiting procedure.
5. Set your desired output voltage and then turn off the output terminal by push button .
6. Connect to your load positive to positive and negative to negative.
7. Turn on the output terminal again and check if display shows (CV).
8. If display shows (CC), either your preset current limiting value is too low or your load requires more voltage and current. You need to
re-access the voltage and current requirement of your load and increase the voltage or current accordingly until (CV) appears.

Tracking Output Over Voltage Protection (OVP)

This is to protect the connected load in the event that the output voltage control circuit mal-functions, the maximum output
voltage will not exceed 30% of the adjusted voltage value at the time of the operation.

Over Temperature Protection

When the temperature inside the power supply becomes higher than a pre-determined value, the output voltage and current of
the power supply will automatically decrease to zero to prevent damage to power supply. When the temperature inside the
power supply returns to about 65°C then the power supply will automatically return to operation again.
