5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Setting Voltage and Current
- Power On: Ensure the unit is powered on as described in Section 4.
- Adjust Voltage: Rotate the "VOLTAGE SETOUT" knob to set the desired output voltage. The 4-digit LED display will show the set voltage. Fine adjustments can be made by gently pressing the knob to switch between coarse and fine tuning.
- Adjust Current: Rotate the "CURRENT LOCK" knob to set the desired output current limit. The 4-digit LED display will show the set current. This acts as a current limit to protect your circuit.
- Connect Load: Connect your device or circuit to the Output Terminal Positive (red) and Output Terminal Negative (black) using appropriate test leads. Ensure connections are secure.
- Enable Output: Press the "OUTPUT" button. The indicator light next to the button will illuminate, and power will be supplied to the output terminals.
- Disable Output: To stop power output, press the "OUTPUT" button again. The indicator light will turn off.

6. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Disconnect the power supply from the AC outlet before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Ventilation: Regularly check that the cooling fan and air vents are free from dust and obstructions to ensure proper airflow.
- Fuse Replacement: If the power supply does not turn on, the fuse may need replacement.
- Disconnect the power supply from the AC outlet.
- Locate the fuse holder on the rear panel.
- Carefully remove the fuse holder and replace the fuse with one of the same type and rating (e.g., 250V/5A).
- Reinsert the fuse holder securely.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the power supply in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excessive dust.

7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No power when turned on. | Power cable not connected, AC outlet faulty, fuse blown. | Check power cable connection. Test AC outlet. Replace fuse (refer to Section 6). |
| Output indicator is off, no voltage/current. | Output is disabled. | Press the "OUTPUT" button to enable output. |
| Voltage/Current cannot be adjusted. | Keypad lock is active. | Deactivate keypad lock (refer to Section 5.2 or printed manual). |
| Output voltage/current drops unexpectedly. | Overcurrent/Overvoltage protection activated, load too high. | Check load for short circuits or excessive current draw. Reduce load or adjust current limit. |
| Unit overheats, fan runs loudly. | Blocked ventilation, prolonged high load. | Ensure vents are clear. Reduce load if operating at maximum capacity for extended periods. |
