Module Calibration

Publication 1771ĆUM127B-EN-P - December 2002

Output Channel Calibration

1. Set the appropriate bit in the BTW output calibration mask (word

3); channel 1 is bit 0, channel 2 is bit 01, etc. If calibrating only
one channel, set the appropriate bit. If calibrating the entire
module (all outputs), set all bits (00 through 07).

2. Send a block transfer write to the module with word 1 containing

CAL CLK bit (01) = 1, and HI/LO bit (00) = 0 and all

output cal

values = 0.

3. Send a block transfer write to the module with

CAL CLK bit (01) = 0, and HI/LO bit (00) = 0 and

all

output cal values = 0.

4. Measure the signal on the channel you are calibrating. Use the

appropriate equation below to calculate the output cal low value
for this channel. Record this value for later use. Do not enter it
into the BTW file at this time.

10V Output

25mA Output

Y = (X x 6000) - 30000

Where:

X = meter readingin volts

Y = output cal low/high value

Where:

X = meter readingin mA

Y = output cal low/high value

Y =

x 60000

- 30000

(X - 0.500)

21.500

50mA Output

Where:

X = meter readingin mA

Y = output cal low/high value

Y =

x 60000

- 30000

(X - 1.000)

49.000

5. Send a block transfer write to the module with word 1 containing

CAL CLK bit (01) = 1, and HI/LO bit (00) = 1 and a

ll output cal

values = 0.

6. Send a block transfer write to the module with CAL CLK bit (01)

= 0, and HI/LO bit (00) = 0 and

all output cal values = 0.

7. Measure the signal on the channel you are calibrating. Use the

appropriate equation above (step 4) to convert the value to the
output cal high value for this channel.

Record this value for

later use. Do not enter it into the BTW file at this time.
