Constant Voltage (CV) Verifications
Constant voltage test setup
If more than one meter or if a meter and an oscilloscope are
used, connect each to the (+) and (–) terminals by a
separate pair of leads to avoid mutual coupling effects. Use a
coaxial cable or a shielded 2- wire cable to avoid noise
pick- up on the test leads.
Voltage programming and readback accuracy
This test verifies that the voltage programming and GPIB or
RS- 232 readback functions are within specifications.

NOTE
• The readback values over the remote interface should be identical to
those displayed on the front panel.
• You should program the power supply over the remote interface for this
test to avoid round off errors.
