5.5 Dividing the Output
Procedure
1.
Turn the
m
dial.
The m display shows the denominator of the divider value (the number of divisions).
2.
Turn the
n
dial.
The n display shows the numerator of the divider value.
Divider value example: x —
1
5
1. Set denominator m.
2. Set numerator n.
Explanation
This feature divides the voltage or current level set with the main setting dials (main setting × divider
value).
The range for denominator m is 4 to 15.
The range for numerator n is 0 to m.
Turning the m dial resets numerator n to the denominator m value.
The n value cannot be set larger than the m value.
Setting a divider value does not affect the value shown on the main setting display.
When the power is turned on, denominator m that was used previously is restored. The numerator n is
reset to the denominator m value.
For example, if 100.00 V is specified by the range and main setting, the voltage is divided as follows:
n/m = 0/5 : 0 V
n/m = 1/5 : 20 V
n/m = 2/5 : 40 V
n/m = 3/5 : 60 V
n/m = 4/5 : 80 V
n/m = 5/5 : 100 V
