= Connection and Operation Guide =
Terminal connections:
- IN+: 4.0V to 40V positive input
- IN-: Input ground
- OUT+: Positive output (1.25V to 37V)
- OUT-: Output ground
Display operation:
- Right button: Switch between IN/OUT voltage display
- Left button: Turn display on/off
- LED indicator shows which voltage is being measured
Trim potentiometer adjusts output voltage
Use a multimeter to verify output during initial setup
Ensure input voltage exceeds output by 1.5V minimum
Do not exceed 3A current output
= Troubleshooting =
No output:
- Check input voltage is above 4V
- Verify wiring connections
- Avoid short circuits
Display shows wrong voltage:
- Press button to switch between IN/OUT measurement
- Check LED indicator for measurement mode
Overheating:
- Reduce load current below 2A continuous
- Add heatsink for 3A operation
