3.7 Remote Sense

Single channel models 9171B, 9172B, 9181B, 9182B, and 9183B

have both front and rear panel remote sense terminals. Dual

channel models 9173B and 9174B, and high voltage single channel

models 9184B and 9185B have rear panel remote sense terminals

only. Remote sense can be used to compensate for voltage drops

due to resistance from test leads connected to your device under

test (DUT), thus providing more accurate output voltage. The power

supply is initially setup to local sense mode by default. Refer to the

following sections for details of local and remote sense setup.

Local Sense

All power supplies are setup with local sense by default. In local

sense mode, shorting bars between the sense terminals and output

terminals are connected on the front panel (if available) and rear

panel outputs. Refer to Figure 16 below (Note: Some models do not

have front panel sense terminals, indicated by +S and -S):
