Hi,

I have a few 6032A's with various problems. On one supply the front panel indicator lights all come on, but never go off. On two others, the supplies go into over-range error mode at < 1W. I also have two that go into over-range error mode at just over 300W of output.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

The Question: On one supply the front panel indicator lights all come on, but never go off. On two others, the supplies go into over-range error mode at < 1W. I also have two that go into over-range error mode at just over 300W of output.

See the suggestions listed below.

The one which stays stuck with all the LEDs could be as simple as the unit wired for 230Vac but connected to the wall at 115Vac.

The Control and GP-IB can do that also.

Most of the time we see blown FET boards as the highest rate of damaged assemblies due to internal line voltage mis-setting still at 115 Vac and then plugged into 230Vac external source.

Hello,

I've got the same LED - Light problem with my Supply. I found in your library only Serivce Manuals, which are made for higher Serial numbers, and my PCBs does not fit to that descriptions.

Is it possible, to upload or send me the corresponding Service Manual for a PSU with an Serial number 2846A-04179?

Can you please help me? It would be sad, to trash this nice PSU.

Regards,
Andreas
