    Note: Can be ignored for devices with optional capacitive reverse current protection. In the basic version, power supplies of the DP-D Gen2 series are not protected against reverse currents, which can lead to a reverse current from the capacitive load after switching off the output voltage of the power supply. Never connect pre-charged capacities to the power supply unit unless you have connected a serial protection diode between the load and the power supply.

    DP-D Gen2 Series User’s Manual Version 25.02.2021 3.3 Inductive load Note: Can be ignored for devices with optional inductive reverse current protection. If the power supply is used with large inductive loads, voltage spikes with an amplitude of up to 5 times the output voltage can occur, this may damage the power supply or lead to unstable operation.

    DP-D Gen2 Series User’s Manual Version 25.02.2021 Note: Registers marked yellow are only available on devices with option [Y]. Remark 1: The output power and load resistance are calculated from the voltage and current readback values. To get the present output power, you need to read the data of three addresses of kilowatts (KW), watts (W), and milliwatts (mW) at one time.
