Calibration 111

 

The verification procedures described in this appendix verify that the

 

power supply is operating normally and is within published

 

specifications.

 

This appendix also includes calibration procedures for the Agilent

 

N5700 power supplies. Instructions are given for performing the

 

procedures from a controller over the GPIB.

 

Perform the verification tests before calibrating your power supply. If the power

NOTE

 

supply passes the verification tests, the unit is operating within its calibration

 

limits and does not need to be re-calibrated.

 

 

 

The recommended calibration interval for Agilent N5700 power

 

supplies is one year.
