Isolated Voltage Programming of Current Calibration

Important:

For maximum accuracy at a specific APG level, follow the

calibration procedure again but use the intended operating voltage level
in step 3.

To calibrate the isolated voltage programming of current:

1.

Short the main output with a shunt. Connect a multimeter to
measure the voltage across the shunt.

2.

Connect the input voltage source to the Isolated connector

(J3.4 -J3.6).

3.

Set the Current APG level to 4 V. The SCPI command is:

SYST:COMM:APR:LEV:CURR 4

4.

Set the input source voltage to 4.000 V.

5.

Set the input source as Voltage Isolated for Current. The SCPI

command is:

SYST:REM:SOUR:CURR IAV

6.

Turn the main output to On by pressing the OUTPUT

ENABLE Main button on the front panel or send the
command:

:OUTP ON

The OUTPUT ENABLE Main button will illuminate.

7.

Enter the interactive calibration mode by sending the SCPI

command:

CAL :OUTP:ANAL:CURR:ISOL

8.

Press the terminal keys - or + to reduce or increase the main

output current value. Adjust the main output current to 100%.

9.

Press any key other than the + or - keys to exit from the

interactive calibration mode.
