Cable Connection for Calibration

 

Connect the BNC cables to all input channels and the OUTPUT channel 
at one end.  Connect all the other ends together with BNC T ports. 
Connect this cable harness to a voltmeter that is certified to the accuracy 
standard described above (0.25%). 

Power up the 

PHOTON

and wait for at least 10 minutes prior to 

continuing.  Record the environmental parameters such as pressure, 
humidity, etc. if necessary.
