When the cooling fan is being checked, a loud fan noise can be heard. After the self checks, the CV, V, and A LED indicators are lit up displaying voltage and 0.0 current.
  • Page 13: Using Both Main And Auxiliary Outputs

    4.1.4 Using Both Main and Auxiliary Outputs The power supply has a main output in the rear and an auxiliary output in the front that can be used separately or together. The main and auxiliary output both share the same voltage and current control knobs and will output the same voltage and current up to the maximum output ratings of the power supply and terminals.
  • Page 14: Normal Mode

    Note: The power supply is factory preset to Normal Mode with maximum current level. 4.2.1 Normal Mode This is the factory preset mode and the power supply output voltage and current are controlled by the dual action dial knobs. Push the knobs to toggle the coarse and fine tuning. You will notice the subtle change in brightness of LED.
