4. Configuració

1. Desembalatge: Carefully remove the power supply from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage. Retain packaging for future transport or storage.
2. Col·locació: Place the unit on a stable, level surface. Ensure adequate clearance around the cooling fan and ventilation openings for proper airflow. Avoid direct sunlight, heat sources, and areas with excessive dust or humidity.
3. Connexió d'alimentació:
   • Ensure the power switch on the front panel is in the 'OFF' (O) position.
   • Connect the provided AC power cord to the AC Power Input on the rear panel and then to a suitable grounded electrical outlet (100-240V~, 50/60Hz).
4. Connexions de sortida:
   • For loads requiring up to 5A, use the 4mm safety connectors on the front panel.
   • For loads requiring higher currents (up to 20A), use the clamp connections on the rear panel. Ensure connections are secure.
   • Always observe correct polarity (+ to + and - to -) when connecting your load.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

5.1 Funcionament bàsic

1. Encès: Flip the power switch on the front panel to the 'ON' (I) position. The digital display will illuminate.
2. Configuració Voltage:
   • Gira el Voltage Perilla d'ajust to set the desired output voltage.
   • Push the knob for fine adjustment, or rotate without pushing for coarse adjustment.
3. Setting Current Limit:
   • Gira el Botó d'ajust actual to set the maximum allowable output current. This acts as a current limit.
   • Push the knob for fine adjustment, or rotate without pushing for coarse adjustment.
   • The current limit can be preset without a short circuit bridge.
4. Càrrega de connexió: Després d'ajustar el volum desitjattage and current limit, connect your load to the appropriate output terminals (front or rear).
5. Sortida de monitorització: The digital display shows the actual output voltage i corrent.
   • El Indicador de CV illuminates when the power supply is operating in Constant Voltage mode (output voltage is stable at the set value).
   • El Indicador CC illuminates when the power supply is operating in Constant Current mode (output current is stable at the set limit, typically when the load resistance is too low for the set voltagi).
6. Apagar: Disconnect the load, then flip the power switch to the 'OFF' (O) position.

5.2 Using Preset Memory Locations

The PPS-13610 allows you to save and recall three different voltage and current limit settings.

1. Establiu el volum desitjattage and current limit using the respective adjustment knobs.
2. To save, refer to the specific instructions in the full product manual (not provided in detail here).
3. To recall a saved setting, use the P1, P2, or P3 buttons on the rear panel (ensure the Mode switch is set to 'Preset').

6. Remote Control and Programmable Features

The power supply can be controlled remotely via a USB connection to a computer, enabling advanced programmable functions.

1. Connexió USB: Connect the power supply to your computer using a standard USB cable via the USB port on the rear panel.
2. Instal·lació de programari: Install the included software on your computer. Refer to the software's documentation for installation and usage instructions.
3. Selecció del mode: Set the 'Mode' switch on the rear panel to 'Remote Ctrl' for computer control. The 'Rear Control' indicator on the front panel will illuminate.
4. Cyclic Workflows: The software allows you to program up to 20 different voltage and current sets with varying time periods. These workflows can be repeated up to 999 times, ideal for automated testing and experimental setups.

7. Manteniment

• Neteja: Disconnect the power supply from the mains before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Ventilació: Comproveu regularment que el ventilador de refrigeració i les obertures de ventilació estiguin lliures de pols i obstruccions.
• Substitució de fusibles: If the unit fails to power on, the fuse may need replacement.
  • Ensure the power supply is completely disconnected from the mains.
  • Locate the fuse holder near the AC power input on the rear panel.
  • Replace the fuse with one of the same type and rating: T6AL250V.
