1.

Set the first specified level range, limit range, and limit on the NI 4113.

2.

Set the level on the NI 4113 to the first specified test point.

3.

Take a voltage measurement using the DMM, and take a voltage measurement using the
NI 4113.

4.

Store the values from the previous step as inputs for the niDCPower Cal Adjust VI or
function called in the following steps.

5.

Repeat the previous three steps for each test point specified in the level range.

6.

Update the measurement calibration constants by configuring and calling the niDCPower
Cal Adjust Voltage Measurement VI or

niDCPower_CalAdjustVoltageMeasurement

 function.

a)

Input the DMM measurements as the 

measured outputs

.

b)

Input the NI 4113 measurements as the 

reported outputs

.

c)

Input the specified level range as the 

range

.

7.

Update the output calibration constants by configuring and calling the niDCPower Cal
Adjust Voltage Level VI or 

niDCPower_CalAdjustVoltageLevel

 function.

a)

Input the DMM measurements as the 

measured outputs

.

b)

Input the test points as the 

requested outputs

.

c)

Input the specified level range as the 

range

.

8.

If more than one level range is specified, repeat the previous steps using the values
specified in each level range.
