Press [Shift] > [Limit] to set the over-current limit value for the CV output or the
over-voltage limit value for the CC output.
Press [Shift] > [Protect] to set the over-current protection value for the CV
output or the over-voltage protection value for the CC output
[5]
.
CV operation: Press [Shift] > [Range] to toggle between range S1 (30 V/1 A),
range S2 (8 V/3 A), range S2m (1000 mV/3 A), or S1S2 (autoranging)
[6]
.
CC operation: Press [Shift] > [Range] to toggle between range S1 (30 V/1 A),
range S1m (30 V/100 mA), range S2 (8 V/3 A), or S1S2 (autoranging)
[6]
.
Press [] to toggle between source output (OUT) and source standby (SBY).
Press [Shift] > [EXT] to enable remote sensing.
[1] The voltage path is the default path when you select the frequency measurement function. To switch to the current path for
frequency, pulse width, and duty cycle measurements, first press [], then press [Hz ms %].
[2] The refresh hold variation and threshold values can be configured through the Utility menu.
[3] The continuity and diode test functions have a fixed 4½ digit resolution. Capacitance measurement is fixed to 3½ digit
resolution.
[4] The sweep functions can only be accessed when the U3606B is in constant voltage or constant current operation. You
cannot access the sweep functions while the U3606B is in square-wave output operation.
[5] The over-current and over-voltage protection features are only active when the output protection state is enabled.
[6] You can only change the range when the instrument output is in the “standby” state (the SBY annunciator is illuminated).
