Measurements and Sourcing Voltage
The Model 6487 has a zero correct feature to algebraically subtract the voltage offset term
from the measurement. Perform the following steps to algebraically zero correct the
measurement:
1.
Enable zero check by pressing ZCHK (“ZEROCHK” message displayed).
2.
Select the range that will be used for the measurement or select the lowest range.
3.
Press REL to enable zero correct (MON annunciator turns on).
4.
Press ZCHK to disable zero check.
5.
Readings can now be taken from the display. The MON annunciator indicates that
the displayed reading is zero corrected.
6.
To turn off zero correct, press REL again with zero check enabled.
NOTES
With regard to the zero correct feature:
•
The Model 6487 will remain zero corrected even if it is upranged. If down-
ranged, re-zero the instrument.
•
The Model 6487 does not have to be re-zero corrected as long as the ambient
temperature remains stable.
•
Zero correction cancels the voltage offset term of the amplifier. With zero
correct enabled, the instrument may not display a perfectly zeroed reading.
•
If the Model 6487 is operating at, or near T
CAL
, zero correction will have
very little effect. T
CAL
is the internal temperature of Model 6487 when it was
last calibrated.
