- For use in constant current mode: this is the desired constant current.
- If you enable overcurrent protection, the output switches off automatically if the current exceeds this value.
Turn the round adjustment knob until you reach approximately the desired current. Press the adjustment knob to select a digit in the current readout and turn the adjustment knob to fine-tune.
Press the memory key “MEN” again (or wait until the display to start flashing). Then press the M1-M3 button The settings are saved in the selected memory (the display stops flashing).
Recalling Settings
To recall one of the saved settings, press the corresponding memory key M1~M3, the corresponding voltage/current settings appear on the display.
Note: the output is switched off automatically when you press a memory key to recall a setup.
Using the Power Supply in Constant Current Mode
If you want to use the power supply in constant current mode: you set up the desired output current between 0A and 3A/5A. You also set up the desired voltage limit.
Using the Power Supply in Constant Voltage Mode
If you want to use the power supply in constant voltage mode, you set up the desired output voltage between 0V and 30V. You also set up the desired current limit.
If the output current exceeds the limit, the power supply automatically goes into constant current mode.
A DC power supply converts AC input from the mains into a stable direct current (DC) output. It’s used to power electronic circuits, charge batteries, and perform testing or calibration in research and manufacturing environments.
The APS-7306 is a linear adjustable DC power supply designed for laboratory, educational, and industrial applications. It provides precise voltage and current control up to 30V and 5A, making it ideal for electronics testing, circuit development, and repair tasks.
Does the APS-7306 have memory or preset functions?
Yes. The APS-7306 includes multiple memory channels that allow you to store and recall preset voltage and current settings quickly — perfect for repetitive tests or production environments.
How do I switch between voltage and current adjustment?
You can adjust voltage and current either using the front-panel encoder knob or via the PC software interface. The display automatically indicates which mode is active and shows real-time values for voltage, current, and power.
Can I store voltage and current values in the device memory?
Yes. The AKTAKOM APS-7306 programmable power supply allows you to store up to 3 sets of voltage and current values in its internal memory for quick recall.
The procedure for saving voltage and current settings is simple:
Set the desired voltage and current output (for example, 5V / 1A).
Press MEM and then M1 to save this setting.
Adjust to the next required values (for example, 12V / 2A).
Press MEM and then M2 to save the second set.
Finally, set the third output values (for example, 24V / 3.5A).
Press MEM and then M3 to store the third configuration.
This feature makes it easy to recall frequently used voltage and current settings without re-entering values manually, improving workflow and efficiency in laboratory or testing environments.
What operating modes does the APS-7306(L/LS) DC Programmable Power Supply have?
The APS-7306(L/LS) programmable DC power supply supports two main operating modes:
Constant Voltage (CV) Mode – Voltage Stabilization
This is the most commonly used operating mode.
When you press the Output button, the display shows the set voltage, while the current is measured in real time.
If the current draw increases and reaches the set maximum limit, the power supply automatically switches to Constant Current mode to protect the load.
Constant Current (CC) Mode – Current Stabilization
In this mode, the power supply lowers the output voltage so that the current does not exceed the set maximum value.
It is important to set the maximum current value before operation.
If the maximum current is set to zero, no voltage will appear at the output when you press Output.
We recommend setting the current to the minimum required value to protect sensitive electronic devices from accidental short circuits or overloads.
By automatically switching between CV mode and CC mode, the APS-7306(L/LS) ensures stable operation and safe protection for your test circuits and electronic equipment.
The APS-7306(L/LS) programmable DC power supply allows you to store up to 3 sets of voltage and current values in its memory for quick recall. This feature is useful for laboratory work, testing, or when frequently using the same output settings.
To memorize voltage and current values:
Set the desired output (for example, 5V / 1A).
Press MEM and then M1 to store this setting.
Adjust to another set of values (for example, 12V / 2A).
Press MEM and then M2 to store the second setting.
Set a third output value (for example, 24V / 3.5A).
Press MEM and then M3 to save the third configuration.
Once stored, you can recall these saved values instantly, without re-entering them each time. This makes the APS-7306(L/LS) more efficient and reliable for repeated power supply tasks.
When I press “Remote” there is nothing happening to AKTAKOM APS-7306 power supply control. What is the reason?
For safety reasons, the AKTAKOM APS-7306 programmable DC power supply does not allow the remote control mode to be disabled directly from the software. This prevents accidental switching that could endanger the connected electronic equipment.
To return to local (manual) control mode:
Turn off the APS-7306 power supply.
Turn it back on without connecting it to the computer via USB.
This ensures the safe operation of the power supply and connected devices by requiring a controlled restart before manual control can be restored.
What current protection do AKTAKOM power supplies use?
AKTAKOM programmable power supplies are equipped with different types of protection to ensure safe operation of the device and connected equipment. The protection method depends on the model series:
1. Current Stabilization (CC Mode) – Used in Entry-Level Power Supplies
In low-end models, current protection is handled by the Constant Current (CC) stabilization mode.
If the load resistance decreases (or a short circuit occurs), the power supply automatically reduces the output voltage to the minimum level.
The supply remains in this safe state until a load resistance is detected again.
Once resistance appears, the voltage and current increase proportionally up to the set values.
2. Over Current Protection (OCP Mode) – Available in High-End Power Supplies
Advanced AKTAKOM power supplies include Over Current Protection (OCP) in addition to current stabilization.
OCP mode is independent of CC mode and allows you to set a specific current limit at which the power supply output will shut off completely.
After OCP is triggered, the output terminals remain off until reset manually from the device control panel, regardless of load changes.
This provides an additional safety layer, especially for sensitive electronic circuits.
3. Multi-Channel Power Supplies
Multi-channel AKTAKOM models support OCP per channel as well as total output current OCP for the entire device.
Key Notes:
Devices without OCP rely only on current stabilization (CC mode) for protection.
Devices with OCP provide a trigger-based protection that fully shuts off the output.
In both cases, when protection is activated, the load is not galvanically isolated from the power supply output terminals.
May I use AKTAKOM power supplies to charge accumulators?
AKTAKOM power supplies can’t be used for accumulator charging since it may cause the accumulator breakage (recharge, electrolyte boiling, extra pressure of the internal gas which will lead to the accumulator explosion). Accumulators should be charged with the current source which controls the accumulator voltage and regulates the charging current accordingly. When the required accumulator voltage is achieved such type of source simply stops the charging process, its name is a charging device.
