5. Full current calibration

To finish the current calibration procedure, you must select the full current
calibration option after the low current calibration.

a) Select “I F” for full current calibration and press the Output On-Off button.

When you initiate the full current calibration, the CV LED lights up and the
power supply will display:


Voltage display: I F

Current display: ConA

b) Connect a digital ammeter (BK Precision 5491B or similar instrument) to the

output terminals of the power supply to initiate the full current calibration
procedure. If a digital ammeter is not connected within 30 seconds, the
power supply will abandon the current calibration procedure and will return
to the Calibration menu.

The CV LED indicator will turn off and the CC LED indicator will light on. The
power supply will then display:


Voltage display: I F

Current display: hex number

A hexadecimal number between 0 and FFFFh is shown on the current
display.

c) Use the current coarse and fine knobs to adjust the value displayed by the

power supply until the ammeter indicates the value to 10.158A.

d) Press the Output On-Off button to finish the calibration.


While performing the full current calibration, the current display will show
Adc. After the full current calibration, the message Done is shown on the
current display for 1 sec. The power supply does not return to the
Calibration menu because the calibration procedure is finished and the
power supply must be turned off.
