2. Check the Accessories
The supplied accessories are described in the "Appendix A: " of this Manual. Please
ensure that all the listed accessories are present and undamaged, if any problems
are found please contact your distributor or OWON’s local office.
3. Check the Complete Instrument
If there is any physical damage, operational fault, or performance issue please
contact your distributor or OWON’s local office. If there is any transportation
damage to the instrument please ensure you keep the original packaging. Ideally you
should always keep the original packaging if the instrument must be returned for
repair.
3.3 Power-On Check
(1) Connect the instrument to the AC supply using the supplied power cord.
Warning:
To avoid electric shock, the instrument must be grounded properly.
(2) Push the power button on the front panel, the keys will light and the screen will
show the boot screen.
3.4 Output Inspection
Output inspection is to ensure that the instrument can achieve its rated outputs and
properly respond to operation from the front panel. For the procedures below, it is
suggested that you read "Turn On/Off the Channel Output" on page 9 and "Set the Output
Voltage/Current" on page 9.
3.4.1 Voltage Output Inspection
The following steps verify basic voltage functions without load:
(1) When the instrument is under no load, select a channel and ensure the output
current setting for this channel is not at zero.
(2) Turn on the channel output, then ensure the channel is in Constant Voltage output
mode.
(3) Set some different voltage values on this channel; check if the actual voltage value
displayed is close to the set voltage value, and also that the actual current value
displayed is nearly to zero.
(4) Check that if the output voltage can be adjusted from zero to the maximum rating.
3.4.2 Current Output Inspection
The following steps check basic current functions with a short across the power supply's
output:
(1) Connect a short across (+) and (-) output terminals with an insulated test lead on this

channel. Use a wire size sufficient to handle the maximum current.
(2) Set the output voltage to the maximum rating on this channel.
(3) Turn on the channel output. Ensure the channel you used is in Constant Current
output mode.
(4) Set some different current values on this channel; check if the actual current value
displayed is close to the set current value, and to check if the actual voltage value
displayed is nearly zero.
(5) Check that if the output current can be adjusted from zero to the maximum rating.
(6) Turn off the channel output and remove the short circuit from the output terminals.
