1-2 Overview The R4GT series is a DC power supply for precision plating, based on the ultra-low noise DC power supply R4G, which is equipped with a 4-digit meter and high-resolution D/A and A/D converters, and enables more minute current setting and output.
Generally, connect one of the output terminals, +/-, to the GND terminal with a short bar. Firmly Insert the AC input cord plug into an outlet. The heat sink may become hot. Do not touch as it may cause burns. R4GT series...
When doing some work near this product such as welding, disconnect all connection wires (input/output wiring, signal wires, etc.) from the product before working on it. Ensure safety in case of malfunction. In the event of a malfunction, unplug the AC input cord from the power outlet. R4GT series...

(common) 2. In the case of reversing the above logic: In the R4GT series, the -LS (Remote Switch) logical inversion function is set to on (inverted) in the startup menu at factory shipment. When using the -LS (Remote Switch), -LS (Remote Switch) can be used with normal logic by setting "LS"...
However, the unit can output since the door switch function is disabled. In the R4GT series, the -LD (Interlock) function can be set ON or OFF in the startup menu. When "on" is set, the -LD function will be enabled. When "oFF" is set, the -LD function will be disabled.

The output current will be the sum of the output currents of each unit. Do not apply a higher voltage than the rated one to the output of each unit. A few mA of current will flow back to the units with lower output voltage. R4GT series...
When turning the output on and off with the -LS (remote switch), use the "OUTPUT" signal sent from the master unit to the slave units. Do not form a master/slave configuration using different models. Only the same model can form a master/slave configuration. Mixing different models for it may cause failure or malfunction R4GT series...
