The following procedure calibrates the voltage for voltage gain 4 and current
range high. Make sure that the shunt and the DC voltmeter are connected
between the positive and negative lead of the active load. Also connect the
sense positive-to-positive lead and sense negative-to-negative lead.
This procedure requires maximum voltage 218V and will draw maximum current
3.0Amps.
1. Turn the active load on
INP
2. Set the conductance count to 0x3333
CAL
3. Set the input DC voltage to 54 Volts. After the input DC voltage stabilizes
enter the first exact voltage using following command
CAL
4. Set the input DC voltage to 218 Volts. After the input DC voltage
stabilizes enter the second exact voltage using following command
CAL
5. Send the calibration command to calculate the gain and offset:
CAL
6. Send the system error query command to make sure calibration was
successful.
SYST:ERR?
7. If there is no error returned at the system error query command then save
the calibration result as follows:
