Otp: Over Temperature Protection; Olp: Over Load Protection - Extech Instruments DCP60 User Manual

OTP: Over Temperature Protection
There is a thermo sensor inside the unit to monitor and prevent the unit from unduly heating
internally. When an OTP error occurs, there is no output and the following warning will appear
on the LED display.
When this warning appears, switch off the unit and remove all loading.
Check the load and output setting. Allow the unit to cool for at least 30 minutes.
Check to see if any ventilation holes are blocked, also check that there is sufficient clearance
around the power supply.
Listen carefully for the short wind sound emanating from the cooling fan when the unit is
switched ON again. If the wind sound is not detected, the fan may be faulty; do not use the
power supply in this case, contact the customer care department or the agent from the point of
purchase.
OLP: Over Load Protection
Normally the overload protection is sustained by the CC constant current mode. When the CC
mode fails and goes undetected, serious damage to the test piece or load may occur. The OLP is
used to minimize the extent of damage to the loads in the event of power supply failure.
Switch off the power supply as soon as this warning is seen (as shown below).
To reset this warning, switch off the unit and remove all loading.
Switch the unit back on again and double check with caution.
If this problem persists, please contact the customer care department or and consult with the
agent at the point of purchase.
