How to change the voltage setting of a HV channel

  1. Turn the key switch on lower left side to "LOCAL" position.
    Again, to emphasize: Please be careful not to overturn the key further to the "OFF" position!!
  2. With the cursor keys (next to LCD display) select the desired HV channel number, then move to "Target_V"value of that channel.
  3. It's highly recommended to DISABLE the channel before you change the settings.
  4. Push the SELECT button (located below the cursor buttons).
  5. With curser and numerical keypad buttons (or INCREMENT, DECREMENT, etc.) modify the target voltage to the desired setting.
  6. Push the ENTER button (lower right of numerical keypad) to make the actual change.
  7. Push the ENABLE button to switch the selected channel with the new HV setting.
  8. If you like to change the target voltage again, repeat steps 3 - 7.
  9. If you're done with your tests, change the "Target_V" value back to the original setting.
  10. Make sure the channel is enabled again.
  11. Turn the key switch to "REMOTE" position (default).
