OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS (each output)
Voltage/Current/Power Levels
Voltage Range: 0V to 60V.
Current Range: 0A to 20A.
Note: Actual maxima for voltage and current are typically 1% greater
than the figures given above.
Power Range: Up to 420W per output subject to power envelope.
Power Envelope
The maximum current at any voltage settings is
limited by the power envelope which is set to give 7A at 60V rising
to 20A at 20V under all ac supply conditions (both outputs loaded).
At lower output voltages the power is restricted by the 20 amps
current maximum.
See PowerFlex power envelope graph

cross-over. CC indicator for constant current mode.

METER SPECIFICATIONS (each output)
Display Type: Dual 4-digit meters, 10mm (0·39”)
LED.
Voltage Meter
Resolution/ Accuracy: 10mV / ± 0·1% of reading ± 2 digits
Current Meter
Resolution/ Accuracy: 10mA / ± 0·3% of reading ± 20mA
VOLTAGE TRACKING (Dual output models)
Independent Mode
In the normal mode of operation, each output is fully independent
and isolated. Operation is equivalent to two single output power
supplies.
Voltage Tracking Mode
The two outputs remain isolated, but the Slave voltage controls are
disabled and the Slave voltage is set equal to the Master voltage.
This can be used to generate tracking bipolar voltages, or tracking
unipolar voltages relative to different grounds.
When voltages greater than 60V are required, the outputs can be
wired in series to generate 0 to 120V with the voltage controlled
from the Master.
When currents greater than 20A are required, the outputs can be
wired in parallel to create the equivalent of a 40A power supply
with the voltage controlled from the Master.
Track Accuracy: Slave voltage = ± (0·1% of Master voltage setting +
10mV)
BOTH ON / BOTH OFF (Dual output models)
Each output has an independent DC On/Off
control, however, an additional control button is provided which
turn both outputs on or off simultaneously.
DIGITAL BUS INTERFACES (CPX400SP and CPX400DP only)
These models offers full remote control and
read-back using RS-232, USB, GPIB or LAN (compliant with LXI class
C).All interfaces are at ground potential and opto-isolated from the
output terminals. Note: Remote/Local Sense, is manually selectable
only.

Standard 9-pin D connector. Baud rate 9,600.
USB
USB 2.0 connection (backwards compatible with USB 1.x). Operates as
a virtual COM port.
GPIB (IEEE-488)
The interface conforms with IEEE-488.1 and IEEE-488.2.
Ethernet (LAN)
Standard 10/100 base-T hardware connection. ICMP and TCP/IP Protocol
for connection to Local Area Network or direct connection to a
single PC.
LXI Compliance
