Introduction Unmatched Precision, Unrivalled Performance The XDL series represents the ‘next generation’ of laboratory power supplies offering an unparalleled level of precision. Voltage and current are controlled using 16 bit DACs enabling voltages to be set to 1mV resolution even at full output. Indeed, the accuracy is sufficient for the PSU to be used as a calibration source for some hand-held DMMs. The XDL series uses pure linear technology and offers unrivalled performance in te

Fully Programmable via GPIB, RS232 or USB The XDL 35-5TP incorporates a full bus interface permitting remote control and readback via either GPIB (IEEE-488), RS232 or USB. The GPIB interface conforms fully with IEEE-488.2 and IEEE-488.1. The serial interface can be used as a conventional RS232 interface or as part of a multi- instrument addressable RS232 chain. USB represents the future for medium speed PC connectivity. By adding USB hubs, multiple devices can be connected. A Windows d

Connections Front Panel Connections The loads should be connected to the positive (red) and negative (black) terminals marked OUTPUT 1, OUTPUT 2, or AUXILIARY. Remote sense connections to the loads on Outputs 1 or 2, if required, are made from the corresponding positive (+) and negative (−) REMOTE SENSE terminals. Remote sense operation is selected from the keyboard or via a remote control interface (XDL 35-5TP only); the REMOTE SENSE lamp is lit when remote sense is selected. Switch

Initial Operation This section of the manual is a general introduction to the controls and operation of the instrument and is intended to be read before using the power supply for the first time. In this manual front panel keys, connections and display indicators are shown in capitals, e.g. STORE, ESCAPE, OUTPUT, JOG. Messages shown on the 7-segment display are printed in a different type-font, e.g. StorE, GPIb, triP in upper or lower case to represent the characters as they are s

The OK key is used to confirm most keypad entries. At all other times it becomes the VIEW V/I LIMITS key and pressing it will cause the display to show preset output voltage and current limit for 3 seconds; during this period the LIM indicator in the display flashes. Pressing SHIFT illuminates the key and gives the numeric keys the functions marked above them (e.g. STORE, RECALL, etc.). When a function is selected by pressing one of these keys SHIFT is cancelled (the SHIFT key is no lo

Display The displays shows the voltage on the left (5 digits) and the current on the right (4 digits) for both the main outputs. These 7-segment displays are also used to show prompts during the some of the function settings (e.g. memory store/recall or remote control address setting) using the limited 'character set' that can be achieved with a 7-segment display; these are necessarily a mixture of upper and lower case letters.
