Bump, it's mod time
Not sure if either of you got around to modding your own?
Just got this wee beasty to go with my 15V 0-60A Manson (does this make me the Manson family
)
Still had the original stickers from when it was brought on top so very very clean. Did a little quick testing on the outputs regarding shorting switches for the front.
In Parallel mode only the Master Current set works to set both sides evenly. It doesn't care if it is master or slave shorted still only works on master.
In normal mode Mmmm well it operates "Normally"
In Series mode both Master and Slave can and should be set independently as per normal mode.
So spring loaded toggles or maybe heavy pushbuttons for the job on either channel would be the simple answer. BUT
As I would like to add is independent Channel switching with a default to off when first powered up so some sort of Soft Latch FET based circuit should do it. This will prevent any startup transients or spikes getting to any projects. So I am thinking the elegant solution will be a small daughter board mounted on the chassis between the display and the next board back. The nice thing is then very small and tidy pushbuttons can be used instead of big clunkers.
5 or 10 Turn pots on Voltage are a bit of a must do when I get some too.
Off to look for switches and Pots
