Adjustments
Environmental
Conditions
Adjustments should be performed under laboratory conditions having an
ambient temperature of 24
°
C,
±
2
°
C and relative humidity of less than 70%. If
the instrument has been outside this range, allow at least one additional hour
for the instrument to stabilize before beginning the adjustment procedure.
Between adjustments, always leave the side panel on the unit to keep the
internal temperature as stable as possible.
Warm-up Period
Most equipment is subject to a small amount of drift when first turned on. To
ensure long-term calibration accuracy, turn on the power to the Model 3162A/B
and allow it to warm up for at least 30 minutes before beginning the adjustment
procedure.
Recommended Test
Equipment
Recommended test equipment for calibration is listed at the beginning of this
chapter in the section entitled
Recommend Test
Equipment
. Test
instruments other than those listed may be used only if their specifications
equal or exceed the required characteristics.
Adjustment
Procedures
All adjustments are performed with the POWER ON. The side covers should
be removed to allow access to test points and adjustments. If channel B is
installed, adjustments must be made on the A channel first. Remove the B
channel board, perform the adjustments on the first channel, then replace the
second channel and proceed with the adjustment procedure on the B channel.
WARNING
Special care should be taken to prevent contact with live
circuits or the power line area. This could cause an
electrical shock resulting in serious injury or death. Use
an isolated tool when making adjustments.
When necessary, refer to the component layouts for
determining adjustment points. Follow the procedure in
the sequence indicated as some adjustments are
interrelated and dependent on the proceeding steps.
Verify that the waveform generator is functioning
according to the performance checks. Ensure that all
results are within or close to the range of the required
specifications; otherwise, refer to the troubleshooting
procedures given later in this section.
Perform the following adjustment procedure. If an
adjustment cannot be made to obtain a specific result,
refer to the troubleshooting procedures.
