Performance Test and Calibration - B
6.Press [ CURR ] [ 1 ] ( except N3303A press [ CURR ] [ 0.1 ] ). Press [ CURR ]. Scroll until display reads C:RANG, press [ 1 ] [ Enter ]. Press shift key, [ Sense ] scroll till display reads S:C:RNG press [ 1 ] [ Enter ].
7.Checking low current range, low input current Wait 10 seconds then record the actual input current ( DVM reading / current shunt resistance ) and front panel current reading on the test card under low current range low current.
8.Checking low current range, maximum input current. Press [ CURR ] [ select current from following table ] [ Enter ].
N3302A | N3303A | N3304A | N3305A | N3306A |

Wait 30 seconds then record the actual input current ( DVM reading / current shunt resistance ) and front panel current reading on the test card under high current range high current.
CC Mode Regulation Test
This test verifies the Input Current remains within specification when the input voltage is changed from a low voltage to rated voltage.

CV Mode Tests
These tests verify that the module operates in the CV mode and that voltage programming and readback to the front panel display are within specification. Values read back over the GPIB are the same as those displayed on the front panel. To read back the voltage value via the GPIB, use the command MEAS:VOLT:ACDC?
Voltage Programming and Measurement Accuracy Test
This test verifies that voltage programming and voltage measurement accuracy are within specification. Make a copy of the module test card for the model being tested to record test values.
1.Connect the Electronic Load, Power source and DVM as shown in figure
2.Turn on the Electronic Load and press [ Recall ]. Scroll until display reads *RST and press [ Enter ].
3.Press [ Func ]. Scroll until display reads FUNC VOLT then press [ Enter ].
