3.2 Model Introduction
3.2.1
CC Constant Current Mode
In constant current mode, the electronic load always consumes a constant
current regardless of whether the input voltage changes or not. As shown in
Figure 3-1. The starting pull current is 0.1% of full scale.
Figure 3-1 CC Mode
3-1
3.2.2
Chapter 3 Overview of
CR Constant resistance mode
In constant resistance mode, the electronic load is equivalent to a constant
resistance, and the electronic load will change the current linearly with the
change of voltage. As shown in Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-2 CR mode
3.2.3 CV Constant Voltage Mode
In constant voltage mode, the electronic load controls the power supply output
voltage by adjusting the pull load current according to the set voltage value.
As shown in Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3 CV Mode
3.2.4 CP Fixed Power Mode
In the constant power mode, the electronic load always consumes a constant
power. According to the formula: P = V × I, if the input voltage V increases,
the current I will be forced to decrease to keep the power constant. This is
shown in Figure 3-4.
Figure 3-4 CP Mode
3-2
3.2.5
Chapter 3 Overview of
DYN Dynamic Load Mode
Dynamic load mode allows the load to switch between two current levels
repeatedly. Dynamic load mode requires setting two current levels, the
duration of each current level, the ramp up, the ramp down, and the number of
repetitions. The number of repetitions determines the number of cycles of the
entire high and low current pull load, ranging from 0 to 65535, with 0
indicating infinite cycles. As shown in Figure 3-5.
Figure 3-5 DYN Mode
3.2.6 SWP Dynamic Frequency Scan Mode
The electronic load provides a unique dynamic frequency sweep to find the
worst-case voltage to be measured with frequency conversion. The dynamic
frequency sweep requires setting two current levels, start frequency, end
frequency, step frequency, duration, rise slope, and fall slope. When
operated, the electronic load will pull the current at the set frequency for
the set duration.
Figure 3-6 SWP mode
3.2.7
CR-LED test mode
Under the traditional CR mode, the electronic load increases the setting of
diode conduction voltage, so that the electronic load will work only when the
voltage added to both ends of the electronic load is greater than the
conduction voltage of the diode, which completely and truly simulates the
working principle of the diode, so the electronic load can simulate the ripple
current during the real LED test.
3-3
Chapter 3 Overview of
3.2.8 BATT Battery Test Mode
The electronic load can perform battery discharge test based on CC, CR or CP
mode, and the termination conditions include voltage, timing, capacity, and
energy. When the trigger condition of trigger termination is reached, the
battery stops discharging and the load stops pulling the load current.
3.2.9 TIMING Time measurement mode
The electronic load has a unique time measurement function, which can perform
accurate time measurement in the range of 0s to 100000s. The user can set CC,
CR or CP mode to start timing when the voltage reaches the starting voltage
and stop timing when the voltage reaches the end voltage, which can measure
the time that the object under test is pulling load in the target voltage
interval. This feature allows for application in battery discharge testing and
other similar applications.

Chapter 3 Overview of
3.2.10 MPPT Maximum Power Point Tracking test mode
The electronic load provides a maximum power point tracking function with DSP-
based algorithms that can find out the maximum power provided by the power
supply and at the same time can provide the voltage and current corresponding
to the maximum power.
Figure 3-7 MPPT mode
3.2.11 OCPT Overcurrent Protection Test Mode
The electronic load has an over-current protection test (OCPT) function. In
the OCPT test mode, the electronic load pulls a step-up current to test
whether the output voltage of the power supply is lower than the trigger
voltage in the overload condition, and then judge whether the output
protection function of the power supply is normal.
Figure 3-8 OCPT mode
3.2.12 OVPT Overvoltage Protection Test Mode
The load provides over-voltage protection test (OVPT) function, the load
3-5
Chapter 3 Overview of
captures the input voltage peak point and falling edge, and triggers at the
preset level (Vtrig) at the falling edge moment, then the voltage peak is the
over-voltage protection point of the power supply under test, and the time
interval from the peak moment to the trigger moment is the OVP response time
(Tovp) of the power supply under test, Tovp measurement accuracy is 10us.
3.2.13 OPPT over-power protection test mode
The electronic load has the function of overpower protection test (OPPT). In
the OPPT test mode, the electronic load pulls the power of the load step up to
test whether the output voltage of the power supply is lower than the trigger
voltage under the overload condition, and then judge whether the output
protection function of the power supply is normal.
Figure 3-9 OPPT Mode
3.2.14 SINE Sine wave test mode
The electronic load has a unique sine wave pull load current mode, which can
set the pull load current deviation value (I_DC), pull load sine wave value
(I_AC) and sine wave frequency value, and the lowest point of this sine wave
pull load cannot be less than zero. The sine wave test can be used to simulate
the ripple function.
3-6
Chapter 3 Overview of
3.2.15 LIST list test mode
LIST mode can accurately and quickly complete complex arbitrary current change
patterns, and complete multi-alignment with load of precision testing. It can
help customers to save cost greatly. By editing the pull load value, duration,
slope and repetition number of each step, LIST function generates a variety of
complex sequences to meet complex test requirements.
3.2.16 AUTO automatic test mode
AUTO mode can accurately simulate the automatic testing process of production
line and complete multi-step precision testing, which can help customers save
cost greatly. Different modes can be set for each step, and by editing the
pull load value, duration, rising slope, falling slope, number of repetitions
and upper and lower limits of current, voltage and power for each step, you
can judge whether each step is qualified or not.

Chapter 3 Overview of
3.3 Protection function
3.3.1 Overvoltage protection (OVP)
The trigger value of overvoltage protection is 110% of the current range. If
the overvoltage circuit is triggered, the load will be immediately OFF, the
buzzer will sound, and the load screen will display a pop-up window (OVP).
Operation to clear the overvoltage protection status: Check whether the
voltage of the DUT is within the protection trigger value, if it is beyond,
please disconnect the DUT. When the Enter key on the front panel of the load
is pressed, the word of load screen (OVP) is eliminated, and the load exits
the OVP protection status.
3.3.2 Overcurrent Protection (OCP)
The maximum load current will be limited by hardware to about 110% of the present current range. Once the over-current protection is triggered, the load will immediately turn off, the buzzer will sound, and the load screen will display a popup window (OCP).
Operation to clear the over-current protection status: Check whether the current
of the DUT is within the rated current of the load or the set protection current, if it is
exceeded, please disconnect the DUT. When the Enter key on the front panel of the
load is pressed, the word of load screen (OCP) is eliminated, and the load exits the
OCP
protection
status.
3.3.3 Overpower Protection (OPP)
The maximum load power will be limited by hardware to about 110% of the
present current power range. Once the over-power protection is triggered, the
load will immediately turn off, the buzzer will sound, and the load screen
will display a pop-up window (OPP).
Operation to clear the overpower protection status: After pressing the Enter
key on the front panel of the load, the word “OPP” will be removed from the
load screen and the load will exit the OPP protection status.

Chapter 4
Basic
3.3.4 Over Temperature Protection (OTP)
When the internal power device of the load exceeds about 85°C, the load
temperature is protected, at which time the load will be automatically OFF,
the buzzer will sound, and the load screen will display a pop-up window (OTP).
Operation to clear the over temperature protection: When the load temperature
drops to the protection point, press the Enter key on the front panel of the
load, the word “OTP” will be eliminated, and the load will exit the OTP state.
3.3.5 Input polarity reversal protection (REV)
When the input voltage polarity is reversed, the load will be immediately OFF,
the buzzer will sound, and the load screen will display a pop-up window (REV).
As long as the input voltage with opposite polarity is always present, it will
always be in the alarm state.
Operation to clear the reverse polarity protection status: Check whether the
polarity is reversed, and if so, disconnect the connector.
3.4 ALLRUN Function
You can turn on the ALLRUN function of the module that needs to pull the
current together and press the LOAD key of any ALLRUN function to turn on the
module to pull the current synchronously or stop pulling the current. The
following is an example analysis:
Module 1 and 2 ALLRUN function is turned on, module 3, 4 and 5 ALLRUN function
is turned off.
Module 1 LOAD ON, module 2 synchronous LOAD ON, modules 3, 4 and 5 do not
respond.
Module 2 LOAD ON, module 1 synchronous LOAD ON, modules 3, 4 and 5 do not
respond.
Module 3 LOAD ON, Modules 1, 2, 4 and 5 do not respond.
Module 4 LOAD ON, Modules 1, 2, 3 and 5 do not respond.
Module 5 LOAD ON, Modules 1, 2, 3 and 4 do not respond.
3.5 Module Online
3.5.1
Module Online Setup
You can set any module as host mode, other modules involved in online as slave
mode, and modules not involved as standalone mode. If there is already a host
module, and then set the current module as host module, the module will prompt
that the number of hosts is greater than 1, and you need to change it
manually. After the successful connection, you can choose the connection type,
which is divided into power and copy mode. The power mode is for the modules
participating in the online to allocate the current of pulling load
proportionally according to the maximum current. The power mode should be set
to CC mode. Copy mode is for all participating modules to pull the current
value set by the host module. Copy mode supports CC mode and DYN mode. Only
the host module can LOAD ON or LOAD OFF, the slave module keys do not respond
(only the L/R keys respond for the dual channel module).
4-9
Chapter 4 Basic
3.5.2 Cautions
Description of module online and ALLRUN function: If no module is online, all
modules with ALLRUN function on are LOAD ON or LOAD OFF synchronously.
If some of the modules are online and some of them are not involved in online,
they do not affect each other. The following is an example analysis:
Modules 1 and 2 are online, module 1 is the host module. Modules 3, 4 and 5
are not involved in online, modules 3 and 4 ALLRUN function is ON and module 5
ALLRUN function is OFF.
Module 1 LOAD ON, module 2 synchronous LOAD ON, modules 3, 4 and 5 do not
respond. Module 3 LOAD ON, module 4 synchronous LOAD ON, modules 1, 2 and 5 do
not respond. Module 4 LOAD ON, module 3 synchronous LOAD ON, modules 1, 2 and
5 do not respond. Module 5 LOAD ON, Modules 1, 2, 3 and 4 do not respond.
Whether the ALLRUN function of module 1 and 2 is turned on or, it does not
affect the operating status.
3.6 CAN Online
Support up to 4 whole machines to be connected online through CAN interface.
First set a master frame, enter the backplane setting, set CAN mode as master,
CAN address as 1, and CAN status as on. Set the slave frame, set CAN mode as
slave, CAN address as 2~4, and CAN status as on. Then set a host module in the
host, the other modules are set to slave mode, enter the module online, and
the online mode is set to copy mode. After it succeeds, the host module can
set the pull load value, and the other machines in the online can pull load
the same current value at the same time, supporting CC and DYN mode.
