3) Set the voltage value Set a different voltage value. Make sure that the set value and output value are the same. Also check if the output current value is zero or close to zero A. 4) Ensure that the voltage can be adjusted from zero to the maximum rated value. Current Output Check The following steps check the basic current functionality by shorting the power supply’s output. 1) Turn on the power supply. 2) Disable the output by pressing the Out on/off . The ON annunciator is turned off.

For Models: 9150, 9151, 9152, 9153 1.7 Rack Mounting the Instrument You can mount the power supply in a standard 19-inch rack cabinet using the IT-E151 rack mount kit. Note: Remove the carrying handle and the two plastic ears before rack-mounting the instrument. To remove the handle, grasp the handle on the side, pull outwards and rotate it to a special position where the arrow on the handle and the arrow on the plastic ears are in opposite directions. Now you can pull the handle outwards.
PAGE 12
To rack mount a single instrument, order rack mount kit IT-E151 To rack mount two instruments (models 9120A, 9121A, 9122A, 9123A, 9124 only) side-by-side, order rack mount kit IT-E151, In this case you don’t need to use the front cover panel. 3. Front-panel Operation So far we have covered the quick start chapter which briefly introduced the front panel operation and how to check basic voltage and current functionality.

TRIGGER: Pins 1 and 2 can be used to apply external trigger sources to the power supply. These pins can also be used to control the list operation RI/DFI： The Inhibit Input pin can be used to control the output state of the power supply (RI function). The Fault Output pin (DFI function) can be used to indicate internal faults of the power supply. NOTE: The Fault indicator function (DFI) is only available for models 9120A, 9121A, 9122A, 9123A, and 9124.
PAGE 19
The RI input has 3 modes: LATCHING, LIVE and OFF LATCHING When the TTL signal at the RI port transitions from TTL High to Low, the output of the power supply will turn off. LIVE The output state of the power supply changes according to the signal level applied to the RI port. If the level is TTL high, the power supply output is on; if the level at the RI port is TTL Low, the output of the power supply is off. OFF The signal applied to the RI port does not affect the output state of the power supply.

The power supply executes a list in CONTINIOUS or Step mode. In CONTINIOUS mode, the power supply will start executing the list once. As soon as a trigger signal is received, it will wait until the next trigger signal is received. Before you edit the list file, set the trigger source in the menu to “immediate”.

LATCHING: When the level of INH port changes from high to low, the output of power supply turns off. LIVE: The output state of power supply changes according to the level of the INH port. If the level of INH is TTL High, the output is on. If the level at pin INH is TTL Low, the output of the power supply is off. OFF: The level state of INH does not affect the output state of the power supply. c) When “Port Mode” in the menu is set to “DIGITAL I/O”, “INH” pin functions as a digital input pin.
