Set up
NOTE The chopper amplifier has to be adjusted on-load (with connected prop. solenoid).
Never disconnect the solenoid while the operating current is connected.

To get optimal results and to avoid defects on the chopper amplifier and the
valves, adjust the chopper amplifier with the following instructions

Adjust minimum current (Imin) always before maximum current (Imax).

►►Connect supply voltage (see figure).

Potentiometer externe Stromansteuerung

control ►►Connect external potentiometer (see figure).
