If I
out
reaches I
max
, the instrument switches to CC mode, i.e. the output current remains
constant and limited to I
max
even if the load increases. Instead, the output voltage V
out
decreases to almost zero with a short circuit. In CC mode, the font text in the channel
display area changes to red.

CR mode
To go into CR mode, the R&S
NGL/NGM must operate in sink mode where current
flows into the instrument and "Constant Resistance" is enabled.
With "Constant Resistance" enabled and configured, the R&S
NGL/NGM can set the
resistance in sink mode, this allows the R&S
NGL/NGM to behave like an electronic
load which is useful in battery test application.
In CR mode, the font text in the channel display area changes to cyan.
