    11 5. Operating instructions 5.1 general precautions avoid using the power supply in ambient temperatures above +40° c. Always allow sufficient air space around the venting hole at the rear of the power supply for effective radiation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not exceed the voltage ratin...

  • Page 12: Setting Current Limit

    12 setting current limit 1) determine the maximum safe current for the device to be powered. 2) temporarily short the (+) and (-) terminals of the power supply together with a test lead. 3) rotate the coarse voltage control away from zero sufficiently for the c.C. Indicator to light. 4) adjust the c...
