SPECIFICATIONS

VOLTAGE:

• Ajustable from 0 < 25 Volts at a resolution of 100 mV.

CURRENT: choice of 4 ranges;

• 0 < 1.000A at a resolution of 1 mA. JP1 and JP2 open, C1 = 2000uF filter cap., R7 = 0.5 Ohm, T1 = 24V, 1Amp.
• 0 < 2.000A at a resolution of 2 mA. JP1 ground and JP2 open, C1 = 4000uF filter cap., R7 = 0.25 Ohm, T1 = 24V, 2Amp.
• 0 < 4.000A at a resolution of 4 mA. JP1 open and JP2 ground, C1 = 8000uF filter cap., R7 = 0.125 Ohm, T1 = 24V, 4Amp.
• 0 < 8.000A at a resolution of 8 mA. JP1 and JP2 ground, C1 = 16000uF filter cap., R7 = 0.0625 Ohm, T1 = 24V, 8Amp.

2 lines LCD display:

• The top line shows the settings, the maximum current stays displayed at all times, it is not necessary to short the output terminals to set the maximum current.
• The bottom line shows the measured values.
• The arrows at the bottom center line show who is in control, the voltage or the current.

Adjustments:

• Voltage, steps of 1 V and 0.1 V.
• Current, steps of 1, 2, 4, 8 mA and 50, 100, 200, 400 mA depending on the Amp range.
• Memorisation of the last settings before power off, restarting with thoses same settings.
