Functional Tests

These functional test procedures include power-on and front panel function checks
as well as voltage and current mode operation checks.

Power-on 1. Ensure that the AC power switch is in the OFF position.
Check
2. Ensure that the output sense lines are connected in the default configuration.
3. Turn the voltage and current controls fully counter-clockwise.
4. Connect the unit to an AC outlet.
5. Turn the front panel AC power switch to ON.
After a short power-on delay, the front panel digital meters light up and the green
voltage mode LED turns on. Both voltmeter and ammeter displays read zero.
