To connect remote sense lines:
1. Turn OFF the power supply.
2. Remove the local sense jumpers connecting J10 mating connector terminal 5
3. Connect the positive remote sense lead to J10 mating connector terminal 5
4. To prevent ground loops, ground the sense line shield, at one point only, to the
5. Turn ON the power supply.
Note I
and with either of the positive or negative load lines not connected, the shutdown circuit
will activate, causing the output voltage and current to fall to zero
If you operate the power supply without remote sense lines or local sense jumpers in
place, the supply will continue to work, but supply regulation will be degraded and/or
erratic; or, the OVP circuit may activate.
Figure 2.12 shows a sample setup for using remote sensing.
