27. Call the niHsai Group A External Cal API v1 Host.lvclass:Close Ext Cal Session VI with
the following settings to close the external calibration session:
action
: Set this control to Commit to store the new calibration constants, adjustment time,
adjustment date, and adjustment temperature to nonvolatile memory of the oscilloscope.
If any errors occurred that were not corrected during any of the external adjustment steps,
or if you want to abort the operation, set this control to Cancel to discard the new
calibration constants without changing any of the calibration data stored in the
nonvolatile memory of the oscilloscope.
28. Call the niScope Initialize VI to obtain an NI-SCOPE session.
29. Self-calibrate the PXIe-5172 using the niScope Cal Self Calibrate VI.
30. Call the niScope Close VI to close the NI-SCOPE session.
Adjusting 1 M
Ω
Compensation Attenuator
Follow this procedure to adjust the 1 MΩ compensation attenuator of the PXIe-5172.
1.
Connect the calibrator test head to the specified channel of the PXIe-5172 using an SMB
(plug) to BNC (f) adapter.
2.
Call the niHsai Group A External Cal API v1 Host.lvclass:Compensated Attenuator Cal
Initialize VI with the following settings:
•
channel
: The specified channel
•
input impedance
: 1 MΩ
3.
Call the niHsai Group A External Cal API v1 Host.lvclass:Compensated Attenuator Cal
Configure VI to obtain the amplitude and frequency of the square waveform to generate.
Configure the calibrator to output a symmetrical-polarity square waveform with the
specified amplitude and frequency into 1 MΩ.
4.
Enable the calibrator output if not already enabled.
5.
Wait 1 second for settling.
6.
Call the niHsai Group A External Cal API v1 Host.lvclass:Compensated Attenuator Cal
Adjust VI with the following settings:
•
frequency generated (Hz)
: The frequency of the square waveform present on the
specified channel of the PXIe-5172
•
amplitude generated (Vpk-pk)
: The amplitude of the square waveform present on
the specified channel of the PXIe-5172
7.
Repeat steps 3 through 6 until the
compensated attenuator cal complete
indicator from
the niHsai Group A External Cal API v1 Host.lvclass:Compensated Attenuator Cal
Adjust VI returns TRUE.
8.
Disable the calibrator output.
