RIGOL DP832 channel 3 fault/Showing "UR"
« on: May 27, 2022, 07:29:50 am »
Hi

I needed 60v/3A for some troubleshooting & in order to get that,I made a series connection between Ch1 & 2.But due to a ongoing con call,by mistake,I inserted the negative probe to Ch3's positive.Then I shorted the output & instantly some bad smell came out from DP832.Ch3 was showing that "Ch3 is disabled due to overvoltage protection" sort of message.
After the incident,Ch1 & 2 supposed to be working fine.Voltage regulation for Ch3 is ok but it is unable to give 3A output whenever I am shorting the probes.The o/p current is varying instead of a steady 3A & the display is showing for "5v/3A at UR".The "UR" is changing to "CV" sometimes.
What can be the fault?Is the o/p driver transistor or the op amps gone bad? I live in a remote village in India & unable to get any help/service from Rigol here so I have to repair it all by myself so appreciating any kind of help.
I am attaching pics for the connection I made by mistake & the Ch3 output right now whenever shorting....
Also,wondering if anyone is having schematics for the PSU.That would be of great help.

Thanks in advance...

Probably output transistor would be affected yeah. You'll want to take it apart and measure, look for burned parts, etc.

Did you read through the previous DP832 repair threads?
