Verifying zero values using a 4-wire short
Four-wire short verifications are not included in the Customer Calibration Data Report.
To verify zero values using a 4-wire short, you will:
•
Check the zero values of various test points with 4-wire connections to the DMM6500 front or rear
terminals.
•
Verify that the displayed readings are within specified limits.
Verify resistance zero values using a 4-wire short
To verify resistance zero values:
1. Select the
4W Res
function.
2. Set the DMM6500 to the
1Ω
range.
3. Press the
MENU
key.
4. Under Measure, select
Settings
.
5. Set the Offset Compensation to
On
.
6. Connect the Model 8610 or 8620 4-wire short to the front panel as shown in the following figure.
7. Allow to settle for 5 minutes. Do not use relative offset.
