low.
Voltage recovers if setting is
reduced.
Do not attempt to draw more

voltage supply. Higher power
modules are available to
special order.
High voltage not at setpoint
A high compliance source
such as a charged particle
beam is driving the HV
electrode.
Monitor value recovers if
C400 disconnected from the
external circuit.
Change geometry to reduce
