Henk, suggesting you to post a new thread regarding your problem, rather than in here, as it wont get exposed too much. |

Hi Everyone, I purchased this ISO-TECH IPS-4303S DC Power Supply for my hobbyist electronics lab. I initially found myself confused by the interface, but as i used it more i finally got use to it, and its my go-to PSU now. I did a video introduction to this DC Power Supply on my YouTube channel below if your interested to find out more. https://youtu.be/HW80mMk9wE8 Regards Badvoc |

Badvoc, That looks identical to the GW Instek GPD-4303s. I bet you could use their free remote software via the USB port. The difference in current between the 2 ranges at the end of your video is likely due to different burden voltages. I believe Dave has a video explaining burden voltage. Try setting your PSU to constant current mode and then check the two ranges. Note whether their is then a different voltage displayed on your PSU. Also, if you have a DSO, you may want to check for overshoot when the output is turned on. Especially on the far right fixed output channel. Some of the Instek GPD PSUs suffer from this. |

Btw your spot on with the brand GW Instek, i bought this from RS Components and ISO-TECH brand appears to be an OEM brand under RS, although they are switching to their own RS Pro brand these days i have recently noticed. |
