Default Re: power source

I'm not familiar with that particular PS.

Have you tried dialing the amps down to 0A, dial up the volts to approx. 25V and then slowly dial up the amps to the calculated set current for the run?

You should have the voltage turned up all the time and adjust the amperage needed for the run. The voltage should adjust itself to the level needed for the set current unless the PS is not CC/CV capable.
