The desired characteristics of the overcurrent protection may differ between load types or the tests to be performed.\u00a0 For this reason, the Z+ programmable power supply series offers three settings for the current fold-back.<\/p>\n

Using the front panel protection menu button \u201cPROT\u201d and the encoders, it can be set to off, CC or CV modes.\u00a0 \u201cOff\u201d allows the output to automatically transition according to the load between constant voltage and constant current and not shutdown. In \u201cfold CC\u201d mode the output will shut down when the power supply transitions from constant voltage to constant current mode, if the load increases above the set current level.\u00a0 In \u201cfold CV\u201d mode, the output will shut down when it transitions from constant current to constant voltage mode, if the load decreases and the output voltage increases.<\/p>\n
