MAINTENANCE

1735A CALIBRATION

If readjustment is required, use the following procedure. Locations of the adjustments are shown in Fig. 11.

1.Set the front panel controls of the Model 1735A as follows: Coarse and Fine VOLTAGE controls fully clockwise. Coarse and Fine CURRENT controls fully clockwise. Power switch to On.

2.Connect the Multimeter to measure the voltage at pin 7 of IC2 with respect to the front panel red (+) output jack. Adjust R21 for -5.00 volts on the Multimeter.

3.Connect the Multimeter to measure the voltage at pin 1 of IC2 with respect to the front panel red (+) output jack. Adjust R63 for 0 + l 0 mV on the Multimeter.

4.Connect the Multimeter to measure the DC voltage between the black (-) and red (+) output jacks. The voltage should be 30 to 32 volts, the green CV indicator should be lit, and the red CC indicator should be off.

5.Set the front panel Fine VOLTAGE control for a reading of 30.00 volts on the Multimeter. Adjust upper GREEN R304 for a front panel meter reading of 30.00 volts on the GREEN VOLTAGE meter.

6.Set the front panel Coarse VOLTAGE control for a reading of 04.00 to 06.00 volts on the GREEN VOLTAGE meter.

7.Connect the Multimeter to read the DC current between the black (-) and red (+) output jacks, using the 10 amp range. The red CC indicator should light and the green CV indicator should go off.

8.Set the front panel Fine CURRENT control for a reading of 3.000 amps on the Multimeter. Adjust lower RED R304 for a front panel meter reading of 3.000 amps on the RED CURRENT meter.
