Timer and Delayer
DP800A provides the timer and delayer functions.
When the timer is enabled, the instrument outputs the preset voltage and current
values (at most 2048 groups). Users can set the number of output groups of the
timer as well as the voltage, current and timing time of each group. Besides, the
instrument provides various built-in output templets and users can select and edit
the templet as well as create timer parameters based on the templet. The instrument
will output according to the parameters currently created.
When the delayer is enabled, the instrument enables or disables the output
according to the preset state and delay time (at most 2048 groups). Users can set
the number of output groups of the delayer as well as the state and delay time of
each group.
Users can store the edited timer parameters (timer file, with the suffix *.RTF) and
delayer parameters (delay file, with the suffix *.RDF) in internal or external
memory and recall them when required.
Press Timer to illuminate it. The timer and delayer setting interface is displayed.
