Test Considerations

To ensure proper instrument operation, verify that you have selected the correct power-line voltage prior to attempting any test procedure in this chapter. See page 24 in chapter 2 for more information.

•Assure that the calibration ambient temperature is stable and between 20°C and 30°C.

•Assure ambient relative humidity is less than 80%.

•Allow a 1-hour warm-up period before verification or calibration.

• Keep cables as short as possible, consistent with the impedance	3
requirements.

The tests should be performed by qualified personnel. During performance verification tests, hazardous voltages may be present at the outputs of the power supply.
