    Conditions: voltage=24V, load R=12Ohm, then V/R=2 A, it represents the power supply pro- vide the load with 2A current. If the current value is set to 2.50A, the power supply works in CV mode, the actual current value should be displayed on the screen as 2.00A. If the load resistor becomes lower, the current will increase.
  • Page 13: Store Parameters

    If you often use a voltage and current as 24V and 2A or 12V and 2.3A and etc, you just need to set up the data at the first time and then store the data in the power supply. When you need it, recall it.
