Verification and Calibration - B

Front Panel Calibration Procedure

These procedures assume you understand how to operate front panel keys (see chapter 5). Make sure the sense switch is set to Remote and the sense terminals are directly jumpered to the output terminals. Calibration procedures can only be performed with the dc source set to the SCPI programming language.

Check the Language Setting

 

Action

Normal Result

1.

Turn on the dc source, access the Address menu and scroll to the LANG:

LANG: SCPI or

 

command.

LANG:COMP

2.

If the language is set to COMPatibility, change it to SCPI and press Enter. If the

LANG: SCPI

 

language is already set to SCPI, just continue with the calibration procedure.

 

Enable Calibration Mode

 

Action

3.

Reset the unit by selecting Output, scrolling to *RST and pressing Enter.

*RST

4.

Press Output On/Off to enable the output.

00.003V 0.0006A

5.

To begin calibration press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL ON and press Enter.

CAL ON 0.0

6.

Enter the calibration password from Entry keypad and press Enter. lf the

 

 

password is correct the Cal annunciator will come on.

 

 

If CAL DENIED appears, then an internal switch has been set to prevent the

CAL DENIED

 

calibration from being changed. (See the Service Manual.)

 

 

lf the password is incorrect, an error occurs. If the active password is lost, the

OUT OF RANGE

 

calibration function can be recovered by setting an internal switch that defeats

 

 

password protection. (See the Service Manual.)

 

Voltage Programming and Measurement Calibration

Action

Display

7.Connect the external DMM (in voltage mode) directly to output 1. Do not connect the load resistor or current shunt. Select output 1.

8.

Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL VOLT, and press Enter.

CAL:VOLT

9.

Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL LEV, and press Enter to select the first

CAL:LEV P1

 

calibration point.

 

10.

Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL DATA, press Enter Number, and enter the

CAL:DATA 0.00

 

voltage value displayed on the DMM.

 

11.

Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL LEV, use to scroll to P2 (the second

CAL:LEV P2

 

calibration point), and press Enter.

 

12.

Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL DATA, press Enter Number, and enter the

CAL:DATA 0.00

 

second voltage value displayed on the DMM.
