Assembly hints 1.3 Soldering Hints : 1- Mount the component against the PCB surface and carefully solder the leads 2- Make sure the solder joints are cone-shaped and shiny 3- Trim excess leads as close as possible to the solder joint REMOVE THEM FROM THE TAPE ONE AT A TIME ! AXIAL COMPONENTS ARE TAPED IN THE COR- RECT MOUNTING SEQUENCE !

Test 14. Test Connect the supplied 4k7 resistor between the + and - points of the load. Connect the Vref point to the DC input. Set preset RV3 to the middle of its adjustment range. Connect a DC voltage between 8 and 35V with the points +V and GND. Measure between the + and - points of LOAD with a voltmeter (set to read DC voltage).
Different configurations 15. Different configurations K8004 Figure A : DC LOAD POWER SUPPLY LOAD (8...35VDC) Standard configuration, use a separate control voltage. DCIN DC CONTROL VOLTAGE (max. 35V) Figure B : K8004 LOAD POWER SUPPLY LOAD Connection to one of the analogue outputs of the K8000 interface card. If (8...35VDC)

Setting up 16. Setting up RV1: setting the minimum output voltage. Set the control voltage to zero (perhaps by disconnecting it). An initial pre-voltage can then be adjusted using preset RV1. This is especially useful with motors (in order to overcome mechanical resistance) and with halogen lamps (in order to pre-heat the filament).
