The DP832 is a triple output power supply. CH1 and CH2 are +30V supplies, and CH3 is a 5V supply.
To configure the instrument as a +/-30V or lower, you can use the instrument ground plug located on the front panel:
– Select which channel you want to be + and which you want to be – (in this note, we will select CH1 as -, CH2 as +)
NOTE: The jumper wires connected to the DP832 ground must use wire rated for 9A or greater to prevent damage or a possible fire hazard.
– Connect the power supply up as follows (we are including CH3 here)
– Configure the channels for the proper voltage, current, and limits that they require.
NOTE: CH1 true polarity will be negative (-) with respect to the DP832 Ground Connection, even though the programmed voltage will indicate positive (+)
– Enable the power supply outputs by pressing the ON/Off buttons for each channel
– To make operation easier, you can also activate Tracking between Channel 1
and Channel two by pressing Utility > System > Track Set > Set Track to
“Synchronous”. This will allow you to adjust the output value for Channel 1
and Channel 2 will follow.
For floating connections (without earth ground)
– Select which channel you want to be + and which you want to be
– (in this note, we will select CH1 as -, CH2 as +)
Connect the power supply up as follows (we are including CH3 here)
NOTE: The jumper wires connecting CH1 +, CH2 –, and CH3 – must use wire rated for 9A or greater to prevent damage or a possible fire hazard.
