Service and Maintenance

5.9 Recalibration

5.9.1 Preparation

Introduction.

This service procedure requires a set of

external calibration resistors whose Rand Q values

are exactly known and generally requires a frequency

counter. (Table 5-13) For the frequency correction,

the counter makes a measurement; but for the four

internal resistance standards, the Digibridge makes

the measurements. After recalibration, the Digibridge

retains in RAM the corrections that the microproces-

sor needs to compensate for the small errors in the

actual values of test frequency and internal standard

resistor parameters.

(Therefore, the Digibridge calculates its measurement

results correctly, accomplishing by calculation the

same result that would be obtained if the recalibra-

tion process actually trimmed the internal standards

exactly to their nominal values.]

Required Equipment

. Refer to Table 5-13.

Decision

“Whether Frequency Calibration is Needed.

The frequency calibration (paragraph 5.9.7) is neces-

sary - and should be completed before recalibrating

any range - if any of the following is true:

• If the “Dallas Chip” has been replaced.

• If oscillator U4 has been replaced.

Procedure

1. Remove any adaptor that may be in the test

fixture. Inspect the Digibridge test fixture for

cleanliness. If it is dirty or if it is scheduled

for periodic cleaning soon, clean the test

fixture as described in paragraph 5.6.

2. Place all equipment including the

Digibridge(s) to be recalibrated in th e tem-

perature stabilized room, normally at 23°C.

3. Switch Digibridge(s) ON, and if frequency

calibration is needed (see above), switch the

counter power ON. Allow all equipment to

warm up for at least two hours . Leave the

Digibridge test conditions at the defaults.

4. If frequency calibration is needed (see

“Decision ...” above), skip to the procedure

of paragraph 5.9.7 before zeroing and reca-

librating ranges 4, 3, 2, and 1.

Decision whether K Factor Calibration Is Needed

The K Factor Calibration (paragraph 5.9.8) is neces-

sary and should be completed before recalibrating

any range, if the “Dallas Chip” has been replaced.
