Power Supply Operation

Please read the following overview of the front panel keys before operating the power supply.
 The power supply is configured to front panel operation mode by default before shipment.
While powering on, the power supply automatically enters into the front panel operation
mode. When the power supply is under the remote operation mode, you can return to the
front panel operation mode by pressing the
command.
 This power supply is autoranging. You can set a desired voltage and current within 0V ~
36V, 0A ~ 7A (on the 62010L-36-7) or 0V ~ 60V, 0A ~ 6A (on the 62015L-60-6). The
product of the voltage and current must be less than 108W (62010L-36-7) or 150W
(62015L-60-6). For example, on the 62015L-60-6, when the voltage is set to the maximum
of 60V, the maximum output current is 150W/60V = 2.5A. For a 40V setting, the maximum
output current is 3.75A. The maximum output power of 150W is available for all Volt/Amp
combinations that lie on the hyperbolic curve in blue as pictured below.
 Pressing the
Limit
mode. The present limit values are displayed. Under this mode, you can observe the
change of the limit values by adjusting the control knob. If the
again, or if the function times-out in several seconds, the display turns back to the meter
mode. The actual output voltage and current will be shown.
 The power supply's output can be enabled or disabled from the front panel by pressing the
button. When you turn off the output, the OUTPUT OFF symbols and
