2.4 INSTALLATION

1. AC Input Power Connection

Connect the provided power cord into the input socket on the rear panel.

Before connecting to an electrical outlet, ensure the following:

a) The available line supply is compatible to your unit, meaning the voltage

and frequency must meet within the input specification operating range.

b) The available line supply is capable of supplying the maximum peak

current and power of the power supply.

WARNING: TO PROTECT THE OPERATORS, THE WIRE CONNECTED

TO THE GROUND TERMINAL MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE EARTH

GROUND. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THIS AC SOURCE BE

OPERATED WITHOUT AN ADEQUATE GROUND CONNECTION.

2. Load Connections

A universal socket is provided on the rear panel for the output load

connections. Selection of Input Power and Load connection cabling should

follow good practice specific to the application. An output cable should be able

to handle the full load current and maximum voltage and power under worst-

case conditions of temperature, humidity, mechanical abuse, and effects of

long-term aging.

3. Turn-On

WARNING: BEFORE TURNING ON THE INSTRUMENT, ALL

PROTECTIVE EARTH TERMINALS, EXTENSION CORDS AND DEVICES

CONNECTED TO THE INSTRUMENT MUST BE CONNECTED TO A

PROTECTIVE EARTH GROUND. ANY INTERRUPTION OF THE

PROTECTIVE EARTH GROUNDING WILL CAUSE A POTENTIAL SHOCK

HAZARD.

a) Monitor the output voltage with a true RMS multimeter. Keep the

output ON/OFF switch to OFF position.

b) Turn the input power on through the input rocker switch. This will light

the front panel display. The display will show the model No. software

version No. , last set values of parameters, and the actual output

parameters.

c) There is a small delay between the time the last set values are

displayed until they are available on the output (Approx. 3 to 5

Seconds). After the output voltage has stabilized, set the voltage & the

frequency to the desired value & turn the output ON.

d) Load the output with a resistive load. If the output current exceeds the

maximum specified current limit, the alarm LED will turn on and output

will turn off (Overload trip) after some delay. This can be reset by

pressing the RESET button on the front panel.
