1The key can be used as the ‘‘Local’’ key when the power supply is in the remote

interface mode.

2You can enable the ‘‘calibration mode’’ by holding down this key when you turn on

the power supply.

3You can use it as the ‘‘Secure’’ or ‘‘Unsecure’’ key when the power supply is in the

calibration mode.

Front-Panel Voltage and Current Limit Settings

You can set the voltage and current limit values from the front panel using the

following method.

1Select the desired range using the range selection keys after turning on the

power supply.

2Press the key to show the limit values on the display.

3Move the blinking digit to the appropriate position using the resolution

selection keys and change the blinking digit value to the desired voltage limit

by turning the control knob. If the display limit times out, press the key

again.

4Set the knob to current control mode by pressing the key.

5Move the blinking digit to the appropriate position using the resolution

selection keys and change the blinking digit value to the desired current limit

by turning the control knob.

6Press the key to enable the output. After about 5 seconds, the display

will go to output monitoring mode automatically to display the voltage and

current at the output or the display will go to output monitoring mode

immediately by pressing the key again.

Note All front panel keys and controls can be disabled with remote interface commands.

The Agilent E3633A and Agilent E3634A must be in "Local" mode for the front panel

keys and controls to function.

Use the voltage/current adjust selection key, the resolution selection keys,

and the control knob to change the voltage and current limit values.

Display Annunciators

Adrs Power supply is addressed to listen or talk over a remote interface.

Rmt Power supply is in remote interface mode.

8V Shows the 8V/20A range is selected. (Agilent E3633A model)

20V Shows the 20V/10A range is selected. (Agilent E3633A model)

25V Shows the 25V/7A range is selected. (Agilent E3634A model)

50V Shows the 50V/4A range is selected. (Agilent E3634A model)

OVP The overvoltage protection function is enabled when the

annunciator turns on or the overvoltage protection circuit has

caused the power supply to shutdown when the annunciator blinks.
