Parallel Operation in Master-Slave Configuration
Parallel operation in Master-Slave configuration permits higher output currents to be realised with
equal current sharing between units and control of both voltage and current from a single unit. The
diagram shows 3 units connected in parallel. For equal current sharing each unit must be
independently connected to the load with pairs of wires of equal gauge and length to ensure equal
voltage drops. Connect the V
slaves (set CV and CC switches to Remote) as shown.

Notes:
1. Units can be wired for CV (constant
voltage), CC (constant current) or both
(both shown). Set CV and/or CC
switches of slaves to Remote.
2. Connect outputs in parallel using equal
length wires to the load.
3. If remote sensing is required use only
remote sense from the master to the
load.
4. For constant current operation set the
required voltage overhead on the
master.
