4.1 Powering On/Off

Press the ON/OFF switch on the front panel to power the unit on or off. The display will illuminate upon power-on.

4.2 Adjusting Voltage and Current

The DPS3010U features encoder knobs for precise control:

• V-COARSE / A-COARSE: Use these knobs for large adjustments to voltage and current.
• V-FINE / A-FINE: Use these knobs for small, precise adjustments to voltage and current.
• Encoder Knob Function: Press the encoder knob to switch between digits for adjustment. Rotate the knob to set the desired value. The coarse adjustment knob sets the value before the decimal point, and the fine adjustment knob sets the value after the decimal point.
