-If the output voltage is correct at the 100V setting but inaccurate at the other settings, the main cam switch can be the culprit. The bottom of the precision voltage divider is not directly grounded but runs through the switch to allow for the current loop position. These contacts need to be clean to provide a low resistance ground path and accurate output voltages.
