Medium range (EL34143A and EL34243A only)
Allow the unit to sit with input ON for one minute before continuing.
Set the power supply to 3 V with a current limit of 6 A. Turn on the output of the power supply.

Select Mid range and press Next.
CAL:CURR:LEV:MID MIN, (@<channel>)
2
Measure the input current (low point) with the DMM.
Note: Wait 3 minutes for the current to stabilize before measuring the voltage drop at the shunt resistor and calculate the shunt
current (I=V/R).

Low range
Allow the unit to sit with input ON for one minute before continuing.
– EL33133A: Set power supply to 3 V with a current limit of 4 A to prevent overcurrent to the DUT after cal-
ibration completed.
– EL34143A/EL34243A: Set power supply to 3 V with a current limit of 0.6 A.
Turn on the output of the power supply.
