|

9

d.

Read samples from the NI 9227. Record this measurement for each channel.

e.

Clear the task.

6.

Calculate the phase for each channel on the NI 9227. NI recommends using the Extract 
Single Tone Information VI to calculate phase.

7.

Compare the channel-to-channel phase difference to the limits in Table 11.

8.

Repeat steps through 7 for each test point in Table 11.

9.

Disable the function generator.

10. Disconnect the function generator from the device.

If the Phase Matching verification procedure determines that the NI 9227 is outside of the limits, 
refer to 

Worldwide Support and Services

 for assistance in returning the device to NI.

Adjustment

The following performance adjustment procedure describe

the sequence of operation required 

to adjust the NI 9227.

Accuracy

 

Adjustment

Complete the following procedure to adjust the accuracy performance of the NI 9227.

Note

Completing the Accuracy adjustment procedure adjusts the NI 9227 to meet 

both the 5 A

rms

 and 10 A

rms

 accuracy specifications listed in the 

NI 9227 Operating 

Instructions and Specifications

.

1.

Set the calibrator to Standby mode (STBY).

2.

Connect the NI 9227 to the calibrator as shown in Figure 1.

3.

Adjust the NI 9227.
a.

Initialize a calibration session on the NI 9227. The default password is 

NI

.

b.

Input the external temperature in degrees Celsius.

c.

Call the NI 9227 get C Series adjustment points function to obtain an array of 
recommended calibration currents for the NI 9227.

d.

Set the calibrator to a reference value determined by the array of recommended 
calibration currents.
