Load Wiring  
Load Wiring  
When connecting load wiring to the power supply, consider the following factors:  
Current carrying capacity of the wire  
Maximum load wiring length for operation with sense lines  
Noise and impedance effects of the load lines  
Current As a minimum, load wiring must have a constant capacity greater than the output  
current rating of the power supply. This ensures that the wiring will not be damaged  
even if the load is shorted. Table 2.3. shows the maximum current rating, based on  
450A per square centimeter, for various gauges of wire rated for 105°C operation.  
Operating at the maximum current rating results in a temperature rise of  
approximately 30°C for a wire operating in free air. Where load wiring must operate  
in areas with elevated ambient temperatures or bundled with other wiring, use larger  
gauges or higher temperature-rated wiring. For high current applications,  
custom-designed bus bars are typically used. To increase the current carrying  
capability, use parallel cables.

Load Wiring  
Load Wiring For applications using remote sensing, or for improved voltage regulation at the load,  
you must limit the voltage drop across each load line. We recommend that you use  
larger load wiring to ensure a smaller voltage drop (1V maximum under full load  
conditions), although units will compensate for up to 5V drop in each line with the  
remote sense lines connected. The combined voltage drop across the load lines and  
load cannot exceed the rated output of the supply.  
Length for  
Operation  
with Sense  
Lines  
Noise and To minimize noise pickup or radiation, use the shortest possible length of  
shielded-twisted pair wiring for load lines. Connect the shield to the chassis via a rear  
panel mounting screw. Where shielding is not possible or is impractical, twisting the  
wires together offers some noise immunity. When using local sense connections, use  
the largest practical wire size to minimize the effects of load line impedance on the  
regulation of the supply.

WARNING  
Exercise caution when operating the power supply. High energy levels can be stored  
at the output terminals on a power supply in normal operation. In addition, potentially  
lethal voltages exist in the power circuit and on the output and sense connectors of a  
power supply with a rated output greater than 40V. Filter capacitors store potentially  
dangerous energy for some time after power is removed.  
CAUTION  
!
When making connections to the bus bars, ensure that each terminal’s mounting  
hardware and wiring assembly are placed to avoid touching the other terminal and  
shorting the power supply outlet. Heavy connecting cables must have some form of  
strain relief so they don’t loosen the connections or bend the bus bars.  
Make load connections at the rear of the power supply at the positive and negative  
output bus bars or to the 4-terminal wire clamp connector, depending on the model.  
(See Figure 2.6.)  
Wire Size The wire should be one size larger than necessary to accommodate the required  
output current. Normally, the next largest commonly used gauge is used. For  
example, use 10AWG for 20A, and 8AWG for 30A.  
Isolation The wire must have a suitable insulating coating that will prevent arcing between the  
positive and negative output lines, and must be rated for 105°C operation.

Load Connections  
Single Load To connect a single load to the DC output bus bars (5–80V outputs):  
1. Ensure that the power supply is powered OFF.  
2. Place a 5/16 in. (M8) bolt in the connecting hole of the negative bus bar, and  
fasten the negative wire or bus bar, a flatwasher, lockwasher, and a nut to the  
bolt.  
3. Using a wrench, turn the bolt until it is secure at approximately 25 foot-pounds  
(34Nm).  
4. Fasten the positive wire or bus bar to the positive bus, using a bolt, flatwasher,  
lockwasher, and nut.  
5. Tighten the bolt to approximately 25 foot-pounds (34Nm).  
6. Ensure that the positive and negative wires are arranged so bare wires do not  
come into contact with each other or the chassis.  
To connect the DC output wire clamp connectors (100–600V outputs):  
Connect appropriately sized wires as described in steps 1 to 6 above, except strip  
0.5 in. (13 mm) of insulation off each load wire, and clamp in the output  
connector by securely tightening the vertical clamp screw for each output.

Loads  
Follow the “Single Load” procedure with the following exception:  
To minimize interaction between loads, bring the wiring for each load directly  
back to the supply output. When each load to the power supply is wired  
separately, the loads will see only the precisely regulated output from the supply.  
If 2 loads share a single cable, the fluctuation in current to one load will cause  
the voltage to vary on the others. This is due to wire impedance drops.

Remote Sensing  
Remote Sensing  
The power supply regulates the output voltage at the output connectors in its normal  
configuration without remote sense lines connected.  
Remote sensing lets the power supply track and regulate the output voltage at the  
load, and thereby compensate for the voltage drop in the load lines. The power  
supply will only compensate within the limitations of its voltage rating, to a  
maximum of 5V per load line. Remote sensing is normally only required for critical  
loads which cannot tolerate the slight voltage drop in the load lines caused by their  
resistance. Remote sensing has no effect when the power supply is operating in  
Constant Current mode.  
Two remote sensing connectors are located on the rear panel of the power supply. See  
Figure 1.3, on page 20 for location and polarity. Connect 2 wires from these ports to  
the load, where the power supply cables terminate for your connection. Carefully  
observe the correct polarity when making the connection.  
The remote sensing input is sensitive to electrical noise, so always use a shielded  
twisted pair, 22AWG or greater for the sense line cable. Terminate the shield to the  
supply chassis or the negative output of the power supply for best results.

Section 3. Operation  
Overview  
Once you have installed the power supply and connected both the AC input power  
and the load as explained in Section 2, the power supply is in its default  
configuration and is ready to operate in local control mode.  
Section 3 begins by explaining how to power on and power off the power supply. It  
then provides information about configuring the power supply, and also gives  
procedures for operating the supply via the front panel controls.  
In addition, brief descriptions are provided of Constant Voltage and Constant Current  
modes. See page 49.  
Powering ON  
the Power  
Supply  
WARNING- Shock Hazard  
The factory setting for Power ON is 0V and 0A. These settings can be changed by  
end users. If you suspect that the power supply has been used by someone else  
since it was received from the factory, be prepared for the unit to power ON with a live  
DC output.  
To power on the power supply:  
1. Ensure that the AC power switch is OFF.  
2. Connect the unit to an AC source.  
3. Turn on the front panel AC power switch.  
After a short power-on delay, the digital meters on the front panel and the CV  
annunciator illuminate. The voltmeter and ammeter displays should read zero.  
Check the front panel annunciators. If ON is illuminated, press the OUT ON/OFF  
button to disable it. The OFF annunciator should now be illuminated. For an  
illustration of the annunciators and their locations, see Figure 1.2.

Power Supply Operating States  
Power Supply Operating States  
The power supply has 4 operating states:  
Power-On  
Output Shutdown  
Soft Start  
Normal Operation  
Power-On This is the period between the time that AC power is applied to the supply (AC  
breaker turned on) and the time that the power supply is ready for operation. During  
this period, the internal circuits are powering up.  
Output In this state, the output is disabled and there is no output regardless of power settings.  
The power supply can be placed in the Output Shutdown state by the ON/OFF  
button, via the Interlock signal, or from a protection mechanism. This is also called  
the Standby mode.  
Shutdown  
Soft Start In this state, the output power is ramping up gradually towards its target load. This  
reduces equipment stress. This state occurs whenever the supply output is set to ON  
or a protection state is re-set, and is approximately 2 seconds in duration.  
Normal This is the normal operating state for the power supply. The power supply is ready  
to accept settings.

Operation  
Power Supply Regulation Modes  
Power Supply Regulation Modes  
The power supply has 2 regulation modes while in the Normal Operation State:  
Constant Voltage (CV)  
Constant Current (CC)  
The CV and CC annunciators indicate the regulation mode.  
Constant In this mode, the supply’s output voltage is constant while the current and power  
vary with the load. The power supply will operate in constant voltage mode  
Voltage (CV)  
whenever the load current IL is less than the current limit setting ISET, or: IL<ISET  
(IL=VSET/RL). In constant voltage mode, the power supply maintains the output  
voltage at the selected value (VSET) while the load current IL varies with the load  
requirements.  
.
Constant In this mode, the supply’s output current is constant while the voltage and power  
vary with the load. The power supply will operate in constant current mode  
whenever the load resistance is low enough that the load current IL is equal to the  
current limit setting ISET. (VL=ISETRL). In constant current mode, the power supply  
maintains the output current at the selected value (ISET) while the load voltage VL  
varies with the load requirements.  
Current (CC)  
Automatic This feature allows the power supply to automatically switch operating modes in  
response to changing load requirements. If, for example, the power supply was  
operating in Constant Voltage (CV) Mode (IL < ISET), and the load changed so the  
load current (IL) became EQUAL TO the current limit setting (ISET), the power  
supply would automatically switch into Constant Current (CC) Mode and the output  
voltage would vary in response to changes in load current. If the additional load was  
subsequently removed so the load current was again LESS THAN the current limit  
setting, the supply would automatically return to Constant Voltage (CV) Mode.  
Mode  
Crossover  
Remote Control Modes  
Two analog control interfaces are available. You can control the power supply  
remotely using 0–5V or 0–10V signals via the remote analog programming interface  
or via remote resistive programming interface using 0-5kor 0-10kadjustable  
resistors.

Operation  
Front Panel Controls  
Front Panel Controls  
The power supply is shipped ready to operate in local mode using the front panel  
knobs and function buttons.  
This section describes the function buttons and control knobs that you use to operate  
the power supply. (Additional details about the front panel keys, control knobs, and  
display annunciators are provided in Section 1, “About The XPR Power Supply”.)  
The next section provides details about configuring and operating the power supply.  
Function Four function buttons are located on the front panel. Each is described below. For the  
purposes of simple front panel control, you should understand the function of the  
Buttons  
LCL/RMT, OUT ON/OFF, SET POINT, and OVP buttons.  
1. SET POINT VOLTAGE: Lets you pre-set a setpoint before the output is  
enabled. To pre-set a voltage setpoint, press SET POINT, use the Voltage knob  
to set a value (Local Mode). The value must be between 0 V and 103% of the  
units rated voltage. (See page 49.)  
This output can be changed while the output is OFF.  
2. SET POINT CURRENT: Lets you pre-set a setpoint before enabling it. To  
pre-set a current setpoint, press SET POINT, use the Current knob to set a value  
(Local Mode). The value must be between 0 A and 103% of the units rated  
current. (See page 49.)  
This output can be changed while the output is OFF.  
3. OUT ON/OFF: This is a latch ON/OFF button that enables (OUT position) and  
disables (ON position) the power supply output. Normally, you should leave the  
power supply in its Output Off state when no load is attached or there is no need  
for DC output. (See “Controlling Output ON/OFF via Front Panel” on page 53.)  
When the ON annunciator is illuminated, the output is enabled. When the OFF  
annunciator is illuminated, the output is disabled.  
4. LCL/RMT: This button lets you toggle between local and remote control. If the  
RMT annunciator is illuminated, both voltage and current output can only be  
controlled via a remote voltage source or resistive programming.  
5. OVP: Lets you pre-set an OVP setpoint before output is enabled. To pre-set  
Over Voltage Protection setpoint limit, press OVP button and turn the front panel  
screw until the desired OVP limit is achieved.

Operation  
Using Over Voltage Protection (OVP)  
Using Over Voltage Protection (OVP)  
The OVP circuit protects the load in the event of a remote programming error, an  
incorrect voltage control adjustment, or a power supply failure. The protection  
circuit monitors the output voltage at the output of the power supply and will shut  
down the main power converter whenever a preset voltage limit is exceeded. Set the  
preset voltage limit (also called the set point or trip level) using the  
screwdriver-adjustable, front panel OVP potentiometer (OVP set).  
Note The default preset limit is approximately 110% of the rated output voltage.  
When using OVP with remote sensing lines connected, compensate for the voltage line  
drop across the output return line by measuring or calculating the line drop, then  
adding this value to the desired OVP setpoint.  
Front Panel In local control mode, check the OVP set point at any time by pressing the OVP  
CHECK switch. The OVP set point is the value displayed on the digital voltmeter.  
OVP  
Operation  
To set the trip level from the front panel:  
1. Disconnect any loads. Turn the power supply ON.  
2. Adjust the power supply output voltage to any voltage lower than the desired trip  
level.  
3. Press the front panel OUT ON/OFF (output shutdown) switch to its IN position.  
The OFF LED turns on.  
4. Press the OVP switch to see the OVP set point on the voltmeter display.  
5. Holding down the OVP switch, turn the OVP SET potentiometer until the  
desired set point is reached. Release the OVP switch.  
6. Press the OUT ON/OFF switch to its OUT position. The ON LED turns on.  
To check that the power supply shuts off at the desired set point, slowly increase the  
output voltage while monitoring the front panel voltmeter. The OVP LED on the  
front panel turns on when the OVP circuit activates, and the output voltage will  
quickly fall to zero.

Section 4. Remote Operation  
Introduction  
The rear panel switches and connector on the power supply allow you to program the  
supply with an analog device or to output readback signals. This section covers the  
following topics:  
See “Remote Analog Programming of Output Voltage and Current Limit” on  
page 61 for procedures covering remote analog programming of output voltage  
and current limit with 0-5 V and 0-10 V voltage sources and 0-5 k and 0-10 k  
resistances.  
See “Remote Programming Options” on page 61 for more about the connector  
and switch settings for using calibrated readback signals for output voltage and  
output current with selectable 0-5 V or 0-10 V scales.  
Isolated Programming  
The 4-channel Isolated (ISOL) Programming Interface is an internal card which can  
be ordered as an option. It allows remote programming and readback of the power  
supply’s output voltage and current limit with 0-5 V and 0-10 V analog signals at a  
different voltage potential relative to the power supply’s output. Contact the  
manufacturer to order the ISOL Interface.

Remote Analog Programming of Output Voltage and Current Limit  
Remote Analog Programming of Output Voltage and Current Limit  
Remote analog programming allows control of the power supply’s output voltage  
and/or current limit to shift from local operation at the front panel voltage and current  
controls to external analog sources. As you vary the external programming source,  
the power supply’s output varies proportionally over its output range.  
Using remote analog programming requires that you reset switch S1 and make  
connections to the J1 connector on the power supply’s rear panel.

Remote Operation  
Remote Monitoring of Output Voltage and Current  
Remote Monitoring of Output Voltage and Current  
Readback The J1 connector on the rear panel provides access to calibrated readback signals for  
remote monitoring of the output voltage and current. Rear panel switches S1-3 and  
S1-4 allow you to select either a 0-5 Vdc or a 0-10 Vdc range for the output. The  
readback signal represents 0 to 100% of the power supply's output.  
Signals  
See Table 4.4 for the required J1 connections and switch settings for remote  
monitoring of readback signals with 0-5 Vdc or 0-10 Vdc outputs. Use shielded pair  
wiring (20 to 24 AWG) and ground the shield to the chassis.
