4.8 Series (cascade) / Parallel Mode Setting
The XLN3640/XLN6024/XLN8018/XLN10014 uses the series/parallel mode (4
supplies maximum) to increase the output power capability. By connecting 4
instruments in parallel, the combined unit can offer 36 V/160 A power output.
By connecting 4 XLN10014 units in series, the combined supply can output 400
V/14.4 A. Note that you cannot perform both parallel and series mode at the
same time. Series connection will be off once series (cascade) / parallel
connection function is turned on.
4.8.1 Parallel Connection Setting
While connecting four sets of XLN3640/XLN6024/XLN8018/XLN10014 in
parallel, the wiring should be setup like the following:
After wiring is complete, configure one XLN3640 / XLN6024 / XLN8018 /
XLN10014 as the Master and the other three are Slave A, B and C. After one of
the supplies is configured to be the Master, it will start searching for all Slaves
that are connected to the Master. Therefore, in order to correctly configure the
correctly, user must set up the Slaves before the Master is set.
