Note that the display messages do not affect the operation of the power supply itself.
At power on, the factory default setting is for the output to be off. The preset output volts and
current will be determined by the present control settings and shown in the display. All other
settings will be the same as they were at last power off.
Repeating the procedure will change the setting back to the previous state.
