4. Opsætning
- Udpakning: Carefully remove the power supply from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage. Retain packaging for future transport or storage.
- Placering: Place the unit on a stable, level surface. Ensure adequate clearance around the cooling fan and ventilation openings for proper airflow. Avoid direct sunlight, heat sources, and areas with excessive dust or humidity.
- Strømtilslutning:
- Ensure the power switch on the front panel is in the 'OFF' (O) position.
- Connect the provided AC power cord to the AC Power Input on the rear panel and then to a suitable grounded electrical outlet (100-240V~, 50/60Hz).
- Udgangsforbindelser:
- For loads requiring up to 5A, use the 4mm safety connectors on the front panel.
- For loads requiring higher currents (up to 20A), use the clamp connections on the rear panel. Ensure connections are secure.
- Always observe correct polarity (+ to + and - to -) when connecting your load.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
5.1 Grundlæggende betjening
- Tænd: Flip the power switch on the front panel to the 'ON' (I) position. The digital display will illuminate.
- Indstilling Voltage:
- Drej på Voltage Justeringsknap to set the desired output voltage.
- Push the knob for fine adjustment, or rotate without pushing for coarse adjustment.
- Indstilling af strømgrænse:
- Drej på Nuværende justeringsknap to set the maximum allowable output current. This acts as a current limit.
- Push the knob for fine adjustment, or rotate without pushing for coarse adjustment.
- The current limit can be preset without a short circuit bridge.
- Tilslutningsbelastning: Efter indstilling af den ønskede lydstyrketage and current limit, connect your load to the appropriate output terminals (front or rear).
- Overvågningsoutput: The digital display shows the actual output voltage og nuværende.
- De CV indikator illuminates when the power supply is operating in Constant Voltage mode (output voltage is stable at the set value).
- De CC indikator illuminates when the power supply is operating in Constant Current mode (output current is stable at the set limit, typically when the load resistance is too low for the set voltagog).
- Sluk: Disconnect the load, then flip the power switch to the 'OFF' (O) position.
5.2 Using Preset Memory Locations
The PPS-13610 allows you to save and recall three different voltage and current limit settings.
- Indstil den ønskede voltage and current limit using the respective adjustment knobs.
- To save, refer to the specific instructions in the full product manual (not provided in detail here).
- To recall a saved setting, use the P1, P2, or P3 buttons on the rear panel (ensure the Mode switch is set to 'Preset').
6. Remote Control and Programmable Features
The power supply can be controlled remotely via a USB connection to a computer, enabling advanced programmable functions.
- USB-forbindelse: Connect the power supply to your computer using a standard USB cable via the USB port on the rear panel.
