Flexible configuration

Up to four models with the same rating can be
connected in parallel or series (high current
models only) and operate in master/slave mode.
The RS485 interface is used for communication
between the master and slave(s). Once configured,
the master will automatically search for and detect
slave units, and display the voltage and current of
the complete system.

To protect your DUT, the XLN series provides
more safety features than any other system power
supply in this category: overvoltage (OVP),
overcurrent (OCP), overpower (OPP), and
overtemperature (OTP) protection. When a fault
occurs, the power supply will turn off the output,
sound an alarm, and display an error message.
Similarly, with constant voltage-to-constant current
(CV-to-CC) or constant current-to-constant
voltage (CC-to-CV) foldback protection mode
activated, the supply will shut down if load changes
force the supply to transition between the two
operating modes. The power supply is also able
to detect abnormally low AC input power and
turn the output off when this condition occurs.

The remote sense feature can compensate for
voltage drop in the load wiring.

Convenient front panel guided
calibration

Using a 5 ½ digit multimeter and a current
shunt, voltage and current parameters can be
conveniently calibrated from the front panel via
the calibration menu.

Remote sense

The high current XLN models offer an additional
output with a constant output voltage of 5 V and
a maximum output current of 1 A for powering
another device.

models only)

Power Line

The XLN series can be used to accurately
measure the time for a fuse or circuit breaker to
open. After the voltage and current levels are
set, the On/Off button turns on the output
and the time when the fuse/breaker opens is
measured to the nearest 100 µs. The maximum
counting period is one hour.
