Dial and Switches

Main Setting
The main setting section is used to set and display the output range of voltage, current, resistance,
and temperature. The main setting set using the SCALE switch (explained later) with the MAX indicator
turned on is the maximum value (MAX) of the output range and that with the MIN indicator turned on is
the minimum value (MIN) of the output range.
Main setting display
Large 5.5-digit 7-segment LEDs are used.
The main setting including the polarity is
displayed.

SCALE Section
Use the SCALE switch to select the maximum value (MAX) and minimum value (MIN) of the output
range. Output divider, deviation, and sweep features operate assuming (MAX – MIN) to be 100%.

MAX (Main setting (MAX))
Flipping the SCALE switch up turns the MAX indicator on. Use the POLARITY switch and the main
setting dials in this condition to set the maximum value of the output range. When the output is
turned on, the specified voltage, current, resistance, or temperature is generated from the output
terminals.
MIN (Main setting (MIN))
Flipping the SCALE switch down turns the MIN indicator on. Use the POLARITY switch and the
main setting dials in this condition to set the minimum value of the output range. When the output
is turned on, the specified voltage, current, resistance, or temperature is generated from the output
terminals.
Setting a value other than ±0 (zero) causes the Non Zero indicator to turn on.
