Preset Conditions
Before stating the calibration procedures, the PPM should be placed into a preset condition. The
Information given in this chapter can be used to calibrate and/or confirm calibration of the PPM and its
detector(s) using the built-in automatic detector calibration system.
A. Frequency Counter/Timer
1.
Set FUNCTION switch to PERIOD A.
2.
Set AVERAGES switch to 10 to the 6th power.
3.
Set SLOPE switch to +.
4.
Set ATTEN switch to X1.
5.
Set SOURCE switch to EXT.
6.
Set COUPL switch to dc.
7.
Set TRIG LEVEL switch to AUTO.
B. Signal Generator
1.
Select MODE - PM (Pulse Modulation).
2.
Select PULSE MODE - INT -PULSE.
3.
Select RATE (HZ) - 1K.
4.
Select PULSE DELAY - X1.
5.
Select PULSE WIDTH - X1.
6.
Adjust RATE to midway between MIN and MAX.
7.
Adjust DELAY to approx. 3
µ
s (minimum).
8.
Adjust WIDTH to a point midway between 0.2
µ
s and 10
µ
s (approx. 5
µ
s).
9.
Connect a cable from the SYNC NORMAL OUTPUT of the Signal Generator to the TRIG
INPUT on the back of the PPM.
10.
Connect the PPM to the Variac, set the Variac to 115 Vac, and turn the power on.
