Users Manual

The value returned should now be 90 mV ±0.028 mV (between 89.97 and 90.028 mV).

6.Change Hydra Series II's channel 0 function to the internal 900 mV dc range by redefining channel 0. Send the following commands:

MON 0 <CR>

FUNC 0,VDC,6 <CR>

Set the 5700A to output 0.9V dc. Send the following commands: MON 1,0 <CR>

MON_VAL? <CR>

The value returned should be 900 mV ±0.21 mV (899.79 to 900.21mV.)

Four-Terminal Resistance Test

Ensure that Channel 0's Accuracy Verification Test for DC Volts and Resistance meets minimum acceptable levels.

1.Switch OFF power to the instrument and disconnect all high voltage inputs.

2.Remove the Input Module from the rear of the instrument. Open the Input Module and connect a pair of test leads (keep as short as possible) to the H (high) and L (low) terminals of channel 1, and connect a second pair of test leads to the H and L terminals of channel 11. Reinstall the Input Module into the instrument.

3.Observing polarity connect channel 1's test leads to the Sense HI and LO terminals of the 5700A, and connect channel 11's test leads to the Output HI and LO terminals of the 5700A. Connect as shown in Figure 7-2.

4.Switch the instrument ON.

5.Select the Four-terminal OHMS function, AUTO range, for channel 1 on the Hydra Series II.

6.Set the 5700A to output the resistance values listed in Table 7-3 (Use decades of 1.9).

7.On Hydra Series II press Mand ensure the display reads between the minimum and maximum values shown on Table 7-3.

8.The Four-terminal Resistance Test is complete. However, if you desire to perform this test on Input Module channels (2 through 10), repeat steps 1 through 7, substituting the appropriate channel number.

Note

Four-Terminal connections are made using pairs of channels. Four- terminal measurements can be made only on channels 1 though 10 (n). The accompanying pairs are channels 11 through 20 (n+10).

Thermocouple Temperature Accuracy Test

Ensure that the Thermocouple Measurement Range Accuracy Test meets minimum acceptable levels before performing this test.

1.Switch OFF power to the instrument and disconnect all high voltage inputs.

2.Remove the Input Module from the rear of the instrument. Open the Input Module and connect a T-type thermocouple to the H (blue lead) and L (red lead) terminals of channel 1. Reinstall the Input Module into the instrument.
