Configure Load Type; Enabling/Disabling Output Power; Additional Features - KEPCO BOP 6-125MG/ME Quick Start Manual

Accessing the BOP after the output
is disabled in BATTERY mode is
hazardous because (1) high current
arcing is possible and (2) either the
external battery voltage, or the volt-
age (±Voltage Protection max) on
the BOP output terminals may be
dangerous. Therefore, for battery
and constant-voltage-type active
electronic loads it is recommended
that two properly rated external
switches be installed for safety:
one in series with the battery, and
one across the BOP output. After
the unit is set to OFF, first open the
switch in series with the battery,
then close the switch across the
BOP output to ensure safety before
handling BOP connections. When
connecting the battery, the switch
across
opened after the connections are
complete and then the switch in
series with the battery should be
closed. If the constant-voltage-type
active electronic load is adjusted to
zero before handling the power
supply-to-load connections, only
the switch across the BOP output
is required.

or constant-voltage-type active electronic loads. This
mode prevents the battery from discharging during
the OFF state. When the output is disabled (set to
OFF), the BOP will go to current mode, current will
be set to zero, with voltage protect and current limit
set to maximum. In this way the battery will not be
discharged while the output is OFF. For constant-
voltage-type active electronic loads this mode stops
energy flow during the OFF state. Table 5 indicates
how the power supply responds to a command to go
from Output ON to OFF.

The BOP output can be disabled (OFF) or enabled
(ON) by toggling the STANDBY key in local mode.
The behavior of the unit when disabled depends on
the Load Type setting (See "Max/Min Setting Menu"
on page 13. 6 and Table 5 for details).
