Hi All

I just aquired an HP 6201B ( 0 to 20 Volts at up
to 1.5 Amps output ) power supply that seems to
be at permanent full output voltage regardless of
front panel settings. I do not have a manual on this
unit and I am wondering if the rear panel straps
are correctly installed ( I am seeking to operate 
this unit as a standard PS with no special external 
programming connections )

--Here are the connections at present :

A4 connected to A5
A6 connected to A7
A9 connected to -S connected to " -"
" +  " connected to +S 

I do have manuals for other HP power supplies but 
with the exception of the sense connections it appears
as though HP / Harrison / Agilent does not have a uniform
convention for the A1 to A10 terminals ( Based upon
comparing manuals that I DO have !!)

If anyone has an HP6201B manual and could confirm the 
above strap connections  I would greatly appreciate it.....

TIA
