♦ The first and third quadrants are the source: the actual polarity of output V / I follows the source setting.
♦ The second and fourth quadrants are for load: CC and CV cooperate. When the load is used, the polarity of the load setting is opposite to the source polarity.

[1] Accuracy calculation example: To test the accuracy of a 6V range with a 1V output, the tolerance is:
[2] Channels are isolated from earth ground but share a common LO
[3] This instrument has potentially dangerous high voltage (±31.5 V) output to the HI / Sense HI / Guard terminals. To prevent electric shock, appropriate safety precautions must be taken before powering on. Do not connect the Guard terminal to any output, including shorting it to the chassis ground or output LO, otherwise the instrument will be damaged

[5] Output transition rate: Three modes of Fast, Normal, and Slow are available, allowing users to adjust according to load characteristics to achieve appropriate setup time or stability. This feature only supports switching the output transition rate when OUTPUT is set to OFF
[6] Slow mode is recommended for overshoot sensitive equipment. Fast mode may have overshoot on output in some condition
