22.
Ensure that cursor control is returned to the 9500B output amplitude display, and
increment or decrement this value using the cursor controls and/or spinwheel
until the reading on the measuring instrument (connected to the 9500B's
front-panel active head channel) is the same as the displayed target value.
Note
Make sure to allow for any settling time required by the external measuring
instrument.
23.
When you are satisfied with the measurement, press the ACCEPT CALIB key to
generate and implement the correction factor required by the 9500B, to ensure
that its displayed output value and actual output value coincide.
Note
In Operations (23) to (25), the 'NEXT TARGET' and 'PREV TARGET' keys
provide a shortcut to avoid returning to the Target Selection screen.
24.
Press EXIT to return to the Target Selection screen.
25.
Repeat steps (17) to (23) for each of the target values displayed in the Target
Selection screen.
26.
Repeat steps (16) to (24) for each of the Cal Ranges associated with the 9500B
function that is being calibrated.
27.
Repeat steps (14) to (25) for each function of the 9500B which is to be calibrated.
28.
Press the Mode key to exit from Calibration mode (refer to section Standard
Calibration — Basic Sequences, Exit from Calibration - Cal Date and Cal Due
Date for the processes of date-stamping, altering Cal Due date and setting the
advance warning period).
29.
Press either the PROC or MANUAL screen keys to return the 9500B to normal
Procedure Mode or Manual Mode respectively.
Sequencing Calibrations
The table below indicates the order in which the various Model 9500B functions should
be calibrated. Although it is not essential to calibrate all the functions indicated below at
any one time, functions higher in the list should be calibrated before those lower in the
list.
Table 18. Recommended Sequence of Calibrations
Sequence Function
1
DC/Square: DC Voltage (Positive)
2
DC/Square: DC Voltage (Negative)
3
DC/Square: Square Voltage (Positive)
4
