Calibrating for Programming Accuracy
Calibrating for Programming Accuracy
The offset and range of the voltage and current programming circuits are calibrated
for default 0-5Vdc programming signals at the factory. Recalibration may be
necessary when you use custom 0-10Vdc programming or when you switch back to
0-5Vdc programming after previously calibrating for 0-10Vdc programming.

Step Action
1
Disconnect any load. Connect a DVM rated at better than 0.5%
accuracy to the power supply output.
2
Apply 1% of program voltage. Example: 0.1 for 0-10Vdc or 0.05 for
0-5Vdc programming source
3
Adjust R93 until the DVM reads 1% of the rated output voltage.
Example: 0.4Vdc for 40V Model
1
Disconnect any load. Connect a DVM rated at better than 0.5%
accuracy to the power supply output.
2
Apply 100% of program voltage. Example: 10V for 0-10Vdc or 5V for
0-5Vdc programming source
3
Adjust R60 until the DVM reads 100% of the rated output voltage.
Example: 40Vdc for 40V Model
