Chapter 6
System Calibration
Overview
Chapter 6 explains how to calibrate your APS-1000P Series Power Converter.
Although each APS unit is carefully calibrated at the factory prior to shipment.,
periodic calibration is appropriate. Normal system maintenance requires calibration
once a year (See Chapters 7).
Whether you perform calibration prior to a critical test or as a scheduled annual
maintenance task, the procedures for calibration are identical.
Note, the values of some calibration parameters are different for different sizes of APS
models. This chapter includes tables of all calibration parameters for all models. Please
use the calibration values that are for your particular model.
APS-1000P Series Calibrations Modes
Six separate procedures are provided for the six calibration modes
.
Low-voltage mode (
) calibration:
High-voltage mode (
) calibration:
Low-current mode (
) calibration:
High-current mode (
) calibration:
Low-power mode (
) calibration:
High-power mode (
) calibration:
Each of the six calibration modes is explained in a separate section. As necessary,
sections contain calibration parameters relative to that calibration mode.
