Enable remote sensing
To configure the U3606B for remote sensing:
1 Turn off the U3606B.
2 Remove the connections between the U3606B sensing (S+
and S–) and output (+ and –) terminals. Using a shielded
two- wire cable, connect the U3606B sensing terminals to
the load as shown in Figure 3- 1. Observe the polarity
when connecting the sensing leads to the load.
3 Turn on the U3606B.
4 Press [Voltage] to select the constant voltage mode. Use
the arrow keys to select the appropriate constant voltage
value.
5 Press [Shift] > [EXT] to enable remote sensing. When the
U3606B is operating in remote sensing mode, the EXT
annunciator on the front panel is illuminated.
6 Press [] to regulate the output voltage.
7 Press [Shift] > [EXT] again to disable remote sensing when
the output state is on standby.
CAUTION
Do not use the shield as one of the sensing conductors. The other end
of the shielded two-wire cable should be left unconnected.
