1. Introduction The VoltPAQ is a linear power amplifier designed to run Quanser experiments. VoltPAQs come in three different flavours: x1, x2 and x4. These suffixes stand for the number of channels. Therefore, the VoltPAQx1 can power one load, the VoltPAQx2 can power two, and so on. This manual is specifically for the VoltPAQx1. -
