Coarse and Fine VOLTAGE controls fully clockwise. Coarse
and Fine CURRENT controls fully clockwise. Power switch to
On.

2. Connect the Multimeter to measure the voltage at pin 14 of IC2

with respect to the front panel red (+) output jack. Adjust R21
for -5.00 volts on the Multimeter.

3. Connect the Multimeter to measure the voltage at pin 8 of IC2

with respect to the front panel red (+) output jack. Adjust R64
for 0 + l 0 mV on the Multimeter.

4. Connect the Multimeter to measure the DC voltage between the

black (-) and red (+) output jacks. The voltage should be 35 to
37 volts, the green CV indicator should be lit, and the red CC
indicator should be off.

5. Set the front panel Fine VOLTAGE control for a reading of
