3 Operating the DC Power Analyzer
38 Model N6705A User’s Guide
Turning the Unit On
After you have connected the line cord, turn the unit on with the Line
switch. The front panel display lights up after a few seconds. When
the front panel output display appears, use the front panel knobs to
enter voltage and current values. Output 1 is selected by default.
NOTE
A power-on self-test occurs automatically when you turn the unit on. This test
assures you that the instrument is operational. If the self-test fails, the front
panel will display any errors. Refer to the Service Guide for further information.
Using the Power Supply
Select an Output
Press one of the Select Output keys to select an output to control.
Set the Output Voltage and Current
There are a number of ways to set the output voltage and current.
1. Turn the Voltage and Current knobs; the output changes
when they are turned. These knobs are active in Meter View,
Scope View, and Data Logger mode.
2. You can also enter the voltage and current values directly in
the numeric entry fields (the Set fields) of the Meter-view
display. Use the navigation keys to select the field; use the
numeric entry keys to enter the value. The value does not
become active until you press Enter.
