B - Verification and Calibration
Front Panel Calibration
These procedures assume you understand how to operate front panel keys (see chapter 5).
Enable Calibration Mode
| Action | Display |
1. | Reset the unit by selecting Output, scrolling to *RST and pressing | *RST |
| Enter. |
|
2. | Press Output On/Off to enable the output. | 00.003V 0.0006A |
3. | To begin calibration press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL ON and press | CAL ON 0.0 |
| Enter. |
|
4.Enter the calibration password from Entry keypad and press Enter.
| lf the password is correct the Cal annunciator will come on. | CAL DENIED |
| If CAL DENIED appears, then an internal switch has been set to | |
| prevent the calibration from being changed. (See the Service | OUT OF RANGE |
| Manual.) | |
| lf the password is incorrect, an error occurs. If the active password is |
|
| lost, the 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 |
5. | Connect the DMM (dc volts mode) directly to the dc source. Do not |
|
| connect the load resistor or current shunt. |
|
6. | Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL VOLT, and press Enter. | CAL:VOLT |
7. | Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL LEV, and press Enter to select the | CAL:LEV P1 |
| first calibration point. |
|
8. | Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL DATA, and use the Entry keypad to | CAL:DATA 0.00 |
| enter the voltage value displayed on the DMM. |
|
9. | Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL LEV, use ä to scroll to P2 (the | CAL:LEV P2 |
| second calibration point), and press Enter. |
|
10. | Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL DATA, and use the Entry keypad to | CAL:DATA 0.00 |
| enter the second voltage value displayed on the DMM. |
|
Overvoltage Protection Calibration |
| |
| Action | Display |
11. | Press Shift Cal, scroll to CAL VOLT PROT, and press Enter. | CAL:VOLT:PROT |
12.Wait for the dc source to compute the OVP calibration constant. The display returns to Meter mode when the calculation is complete.
