二、Function Operation Before testing the pending test source by load, In order to ensure the stable and safe operation of the load, please be sure that after connecting the load and pending testing source by the way of red positive and black negative, turn on power output firstly , then turn on the load.
2.3 Load Setting Operation Through the system menu, you can enter the load setting interface, as shown in Figure 2.3. In this interface, the relevant settings for the load range, limit value, delay off, etc. can be completed. Operation instructions: 1. Select the operation item by turning the knob. 2. Non-numeric parameters Press [Enter] to switch the setting options.
In constant current mode, the electronic load consumes a constant current regardless of whether the input voltage changes. Operation instructions: 1. Press the [CH] key to select the operation channel; 2. Select the operation item by rotating the knob; 3. Set the parameters. Press [Enter] to enter the edit mode, use the arrow keys to select the corresponding number of digits, then adjust the value by turning the knob, [Enter] or [Shift] + [▶] (Esc) to exit editing;...
2.4.3 Constant Resistance Measurement Mode In constant resistance mode, the load is equivalent to a constant resistance, and the load will consume a correspondingly varying current as the input voltage changes. Operation instructions: 1. Press the [CH] key to select the operation channel; 2. Select the operation item by rotating the knob;...
2.4.5 Constant Current Switch to Constant Voltage Measurement Mode The constant current voltage measurement mode is to prevent damage to the source under test due to overcurrent discharge. In this mode, when the source to be tested cannot output the current value set by the load, it will automatically switch from the constant current mode to the constant voltage mode.
Fig 2.4.5 Constant Resistance Switch to Constant Voltage Measurement Mode 2.5 Dynamic Test Operation The dynamic test operation can be repeatedly switched between two load setting currents or voltages. This function can be used to test the dynamic characteristics of the power supply. Before starting the dynamic test operation, the dynamic test related parameters need to be set.

Pulse mode: In this mode, after the test is started, the load will switch from the A value to the B value every time a trigger signal is received, and then switch to the A value after maintaining the B value pulse width time.
Fig 2.5.2 Dynamic Test Interface 2.6 List Testing Mode The list test function can conveniently test the working condition of the source to be tested under different load conditions, which is beneficial to the automatic test of the production line. By pre-setting the steps of the list test, the test steps and test parameters of the source to be tested can be edited into a list and a series of tests can be completed in order.

voltage exceeds the turn-on voltage of the diode, the load starts to work, and the LED drive power can be truly reflected. With load capacity. Operation instructions: 1. Press the [CH] key to select the operation channel; 2. Select the operation item rotating the knob;...
2.10 Short Circuit Test Operation The load can simulate a short circuit at the input. In the short-circuit test, the actual current value consumed by the load short-circuit depends on the maximum output of the power supply. Operation instructions: 1. Press the [CH] key to select the operation channel; 2. Select the operation item by rotating the knob;...
key on the front panel). 2. External (trigger by triggering the port on the rear panel). 3. Bus (triggered by program control instructions of the RS-232 or 485 bus interface). 2.13 Qualified Test Operation The qualification test is an additional function of the basic measurement mode CC/CV/CR/CP.
The load also adds locking Function to prevent users' error.The title bar displays the lock id.In locked state except [On/Off], [Enter], [Shift] + [▶] button, the rest of the buttons including knobs are locked.In addition, in the lock state, the icon bar will appear lock icon, icon disappear when unlocked.Long press [Enter] key with 3s can switch between lock and unlock state.
