5. GENERAL OPERATION PRINCIPLE

There are four operation methods for this unit:

Manual Operation

Presets

Timed Program

PC Interface Mode.

The large Liquid Crystal Display will guide you through the various operations/procedures interactively once you understand the operation principle.

There are four Dual Function Control Keys for various operation modes and input states of the unit.

To change/set operation mode (output on /off, key lock & etc.), in most cases you need two Dual Function keys to complete the operation.
To change input values of various settings (voltage, current, preset number, cycles, time period & etc.), use the ENTER key to get ready and confirm the new settings.

Liquid Crystal Display

The back-lit display shows both the preset and the actual voltage, current levels at the output terminals; and status of constant current (CC) or constant voltage (CV) mode. Be
aware of new symbols appearing on the display while inputting. They will guide you and remind you of the correct procedure.

Example:
Inputting values of various settings

When a new setting (voltage, current, time periods & etc.) is ready for inputting, the symbol for the related setting will appear on the display. After you key in the required value,
always follow by pressing ENTER to confirm or to complete the operation.

Presets and Timed Subprograms
