2 Operation Overview Introduction The Electronic Load is used for design, manufacturing, and evaluation of dc power supplies, batteries, and power components. The primary operating features of the Electronic Load are: constant current (CC) mode, constant voltage (CV) mode, or constant resistance (CR) mode. The input can also be turned on or off (open circuit) or short circuited. Other features include a built-in GPIB interface and a built-in pulse generator. Pulse mode allows dyn

Local/Remote Control Local (front panel) control is in effect immediately after power is applied. The front panel keypad and display allow manual control when the Electronic Load is used in bench test applications. Remote (computer) control goes into effect (front panel Rmt annunciator is on) as soon as the Electronic Load receives a command via the GPIB. A built-in GPIB interface and HPSL compatible commands allow control and readback of all functions when the Electronic Load is used i
