3. Press the Settings key to access the Source Settings window.
Use the navigation keys to highlight the Voltage or Current
fields. Then enter the voltage and current values with the
numeric keys. Press Enter to enter the value.
Note that you can also use the Voltage and Current knobs to
adjust the values in the Voltage and Current fields. Press
Enter to enter the value.
Enable the Output
Press the key to enable an individual output. When an output
is On, the corresponding On key for that output is lit. When an
output is Off, the corresponding On key is dark.
Emergency Stop
Emergency Stop turns all outputs off immediately without any output
off delays. Press any key to resume operation.
Set Additional Properties
The Source Settings window shown above also lets you program a
number of additional output functions.
For outputs with multiple ranges, you can select a lower range if you
need better output resolution. Use the navigation keys to highlight
the Range field. Press the Enter key to access the dropdown Range
list.
To program a voltage slew rate, enter the rate in the Voltage Slew
field. Use the numeric entry keys to enter the value in volts/second.
Check Max Voltage Slew to program the fastest rate.
NOTE
When the maximum or very fast slew rates are selected, the slew rate will be
limited by the analog performance of the output circuit. Also, the slowest or
minimum slew rate is a function of the full-scale voltage range. For a model
with a 50 V range, the minimum slew rate is about 4.76 V/s. For other voltage
ranges the minimum slew rate is proportional to this value, so for a model with
a 5 V range the minimum slew rate is about 0.476 V/s.
