forth between voltage (V) and current (mA)
b) Long operation: switches back and forth
between "current limiting" and "electronic

of the remaining output should be reached, this
output will also change over to constant current

Electronic fuse
Before selecting this mode the maximum currents
of the 2 outputs have to be set according to the
procedure outlined above. The pushbutton V/mA/
Fuse has to be pushed long. After the LED
"F" lights up the electronic fuse mode is
active. If any of the current limits set is reached all
outputs will be turned off completely. In order to
leave the electronic fuse mode press the push-
button long again.
Example:
The left output may be in the "current limit" mode
while the right output may be in the "electronic
fuse mode". If I
current will continue to flow there. If the current
limit is reached in the right output, however, all
outputs will be turned off.
