5.4 Unipolar Output Calibration

If you choose Unipolar mode for analog output, you have to go through the
Unipolar Output Calibration. There are two steps: Gain Calibration and Offset
Calibration.

Gain Calibration:

1. Set jumpers JP1 and JP5 (for CH1) or JP2 and JP9 (for CH2) to

unipolar, and choose an internal reference as -5V.

2.

Set the digital data as (0000 0000 0000)

B

, trim VR4 (for CH1) or VR10

(for CH2) until the voltmeter reading is 0V.

Offset Calibration:

1. Set jumpers JP1 and JP5 (for CH1) or JP2 and JP9 (for CH2) to

unipolar, and choose an internal reference as -5V.

2.

Set the digital data as (1111 1111 1111)

B

, trim VR3 (for CH1) or VR9

(for CH2) until the voltmeter reading is 5V.
