•
Set the Series 2600A output voltage to the indicated value.
•
Verify that the multimeter reading is within the limits given in the table.
1.
Repeat the procedure for negative output voltages with the same magnitudes as those
listed in
.
2.
For the Model 2602A/2612A/2636A, repeat the above procedure for the other channel.
Voltage measurement accuracy
Follow the steps below to verify that the Series 2600A voltage measurement accuracy is within
specified limits. The test involves setting the source voltage, as measured by a precision digital
multimeter, and then verifying that the Series 2600A voltage readings are within required limits.
1.
With the power off, connect the digital multimeter to the Series 2600A output terminals using
4-wire connections, as shown in
.
2.
Select the multimeter DC volts function.
3.
Select the Model 2602A/2612A/2636A single-channel display mode.
4.
Enable the Series 2600A 4-wire (remote sense) mode by pressing
CONFIG
then
MEAS
,
then select
V-MEAS
>
SENSE-MODE
>
4-WIRE
.
5.
Set the Series 2600A to both source and measure voltage by pressing the
SRC
and
MEAS
keys, and make sure the source output is turned on.
6.
Verify voltage measurement accuracy for each of the voltages listed in
(Model
(Model 2611A/2612A/2635A/2636A). For each test point:
•
Select the correct source range.
•
Set the Series 2600A output voltage to the indicated value as measured by the digital
multimeter.
•
If necessary, press the
TRIG
key to display readings.
•
Verify that the Series 2600A voltage reading is within the limits given in the table. It may
not be possible to set the voltage source to the required value. Use the closest possible
setting, and modify reading limits accordingly.
7.
Repeat the procedure for negative source voltages with the same magnitudes as those
listed in
.
