tional versatility in operation. You can choose from
a range of field-configurable options, including:
• Operate as a stand-alone amplifier or as part of
a multiple-amplifier system.
•
Operate with variable gain control or at a fixed
gain setting of 20.
•
Select Controlled-Current or Controlled-Voltage
modes of operation.
•
Trigger Standby mode when specified fault
conditions occur during operation.
•
Select the Stop mode state at power-up, or go
immediately to the Run mode state at power-up.
•
Configure for use in high voltage applications,
high current applications, or for applications
requiring mid-level amounts of both voltage
and current.
Your 2105 amplifier has been pre-configured to
your specifications before shipping from the fac
-
tory. These initial settings are detailed on your
Proof of Performance sheet and on a label located
on the side of the amplifier.
If you need to make changes to your amplifier’s

Panel, make sure the amplifier is turned off
for at least 3-5 minutes and the AC mains are
disconnected.
