indicator will change from Green to Red. UUT output will be displayed on Touch View
Interface (TVI). Note: To adjust current, touch the Magnitude window and it should
change color to Red. Using the Control Knob adjust the output current. One click on the
Control Knob is approximately 0.001 Amperes.

To test DC Current accuracy change the output frequency to DC by pressing the Freq.
button for the appropriate output channel. Enter 0 for the frequency and the Freq window
will change to DC. Set the output to the desired current as listed in the following Table
and initiate the output by pressing the Start button. The selected output indicator will
change from Green to Red. UUT output will be displayed on Touch View Interface (TVI).
Repeat for all ranges and values listed.

Checking AC Current – Convertible Channel
Connect the current output of the MPRT to the appropriate DMM or Power Multimeter.
From TVI Main Menu select System Config button. From System Configuration Menu
press the Convertible V/I Control button. Set all available convertible channels from
Voltage to Current and press the OK button. From Main Menu press the Manual Tests
display button. Press the Voltage/Current button. You should note that all the Voltage
Channels have been converted to currents I5, I6, I7 and I8. Using TVI, select a current
output channel by pressing either I5, I6, I7 or I8. To set an output value, press the
Magnitude window and enter the desired value. Set the output to the desired current as
listed in the following Table and initiate the output by pressing the Start button. The
selected output indicator will change from Green to Red. UUT output will be displayed on
