Figure 3-7. Current Operate Mode
Note
An overcompliance fault occurs if a low-resistance load is not connected to
the enabled 5725A binding posts when entering current operate mode.
the enabled 5725A binding posts when entering current operate mode.
Current operate mode is when only the CURRENT MODE indicator is lit. In current
operate mode, current output (either 5725A amplified current or redirected 5700A
current) is available at the 5725A binding posts. Current operate occurs under the
following conditions:

Note
Under certain settings of ac current, especially high current at frequencies
above 1 kHz, a whine from the 5725A is audible. This is caused by a piezo
effect in the current output transistors, and is normal.
