13. REMOTE CONTROL
The voltage and current can be set with an external voltage source or an external, adjustable 
resistance (abbreviation "Poti") via the installed remote control connection Remote Control (9)
The remote control is connected to the rear remote control connection Remote Control (9). A 
plug for the remote connection is enclosed for the connection.
The current control bus must always be connected in the remote control 
since otherwise the output switches to the current limitation mode "C.C." 
and limits the output voltage.
a)  Preparing the remote control connection
1.  Loosen the side screws of the remote connection socket and remove the front, black contact 
socket with a small turning movement. 
2.  Insert five connection lines with a cable cross section of at least 0.34 mm
2
 from behind 
through the metal sleeves. Carefully solder these cables to the solder tails no. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 
5 of the black contact sockets. Please ensure there are no short circuits.
The digits of the soldering lugs are specified on the black insulator.
Mark the loose cable ends with the corresponding contact digits (1-5) to rule out confusion.
Place the black contact sockets in reverse order into the metal sleeves and carefully screw 
these together.
The pin connections read as follows:
Contact 1
Internal control voltage + 5 V/DC
(<50 mA)
Contact 2
Voltage setting
Contact 3
Current setting
Contact 4
Ground potential ("Ground")
Contact 5
On/off output
Contact 6 - 8
Not allocated
1.  Switch off the power supply and then connect the remote socket to the rear remote control 
socket Remote Control (9). Screw together the external fastening ring.
