NOTE: The message

Can’t Adj. Full Scale

is displayed if either a load less than nomi-

nal or a shunt resistor is connected to the output terminals during voltage calibration. If
this occurs, it is necessary to press ENTER followed by RESET to restore proper oper-
ation. Disconnect load or shunt and refer to PAR. 4.4, step 1 to restart calibration.

4.4.2

CURRENT CALIBRATION

1. LCD reads

CONNECT SHUNT zz A

(nn and zz values are determined by BHK-

MG model being calibrated.; e.g., for BHK 1000-40MG, LCD reads

<50 OHM >10 W

). (Refer

to PAR. 4.2 for shunt requirements.) Connect Precision Shunt across output terminals and
press ENTER.

2. LCD reads

CONNECT DVM TO SHUNT

. Connect DVM (+) input to sense terminal of shunt

connected to output (+), DVM (–) to sense terminal of shunt connected to output (–). Press
ENTER when connections are complete.

3. With LCD reading

I ZERO adj.

, monitor DVM and use

or

keys to increase or

decrease output current as necessary for minimum positive DVM reading. Press ENTER
when complete.

4. LCD will flash

I F.S.adj. **WAIT**

then

I F.S. adj < >

. Monitor DVM and use

or

keys for fine adjustment and 3 or 1 keys for coarse adjustment to increase or decrease

output voltage as necessary to get V

DVM

reading as close as possible to value listed below.

Press ENTER when complete.

V

DVM

= Rs x Io

MAX

(mV)

where

Io

MAX

(mA) is the maximum value of output current:

BHK 300-130MG:

130mA

BHK 500-80MG:

80mA

BHK 1000-40MG:

40mA

BHK 2000-20MG:

20mA

Rs (Ohms) is the actual value of the external shunt resistor.

NOTE: The message

Can’t Adj. Full Scale

is displayed if either the shunt resistor is not

connected to the output terminals during current calibration or if the shunt resistance is
too high. If this occurs, it is necessary to press ENTER followed by RESET to restore
proper operation. Refer to PAR. 4.3, step 1 to restart calibration.

5. LCD will show

Curr 10X adj. Value = -.---mA

. Monitor DVM and convert V

DVM

to

mA as follows, then note the value of 10X current (milliAmps).

Io

10X

(mA) = V

DVM

(mV)/Rs

where

Io

10X

(milliAmps) is the enhanced value of output current in the first 10% of the range.

Rs (Ohms) is the actual value of the external shunt resistor (the same shunt resistor can be
used for Low scale, High scale and 10X current calibration).

6. Use the keypad to enter the value of Io

10X

(milliAmps) noted in step 5 and press ENTER. If

the value is out of range, (more than 10% of output current nominal value), the message dis-
plays 10% of the maximum output current for that model, e.g.

Imax=8.0000mA

for BHK

500-80MG. Press CLEAR twice to return to step 5.
