Usage Tip

Note: The newly unpacked buck converter module may require initial adjustment

To ensure your buck converter module operates correctly, we recommend the following steps during the first use:

1. Initial Potentiometer Adjustment: After unpacking, please rotate the potentiometer about 10-15 turns. This helps stabilize the potentiometer and ensures precise output voltage adjustment.

2. Monitor Output Voltage Changes: While rotating the potentiometer, use a multimeter to measure the output voltage. You will notice the output voltage gradually becoming more stable and accurate.

After this initial adjustment, your buck converter module will work stably and provide the desired output voltage.

Factory default 18V or so, counterclockwise turn a turn potentiometer about 1V drop
