Deviation
Target:
Voltage, current, resistance, temperature
Selectable range:
±20.00%
Setting method:
Two dial setting
Resolution of deviation dial 1: 0.2% of main setting
Resolution of deviation dial 2: 0.01% of main setting
Presets
5%:
The deviation is set to ±5% when the preset is selected or when the output divider n is
changed.
Preset to +5 % when increased, 5 % when decreased.
2%:
The deviation is set to ±2% when the preset is selected or when the output divider n is
changed.
Preset to +2 % when increased, 2 % when decreased.
0:
The deviation is reset to 0% when the preset is selected or when the output divider n is
changed.
OFF:
Holds the deviation. It is not preset.
Sweeping
Target:
Voltage, current, resistance, temperature
Speed:
Select the time for changing the setting from 0% to 100% or 100% to 0% from
approx. 8 s, approx. 16 s, approx. 32 s, and approx. 64.
Reference junction
compensation (RJC)
(Thermocouple
thermoelectromotive force
source)
The following three modes. The 2560A corrects the sourced thermoelectromotive force (RJC)
according to the selected mode.
Auto (AUTO)
If an external RJ sensor is detected, a correction is performed using the
measured temperature of the external RJ sensor.
Otherwise, a correction is performed using the temperature of the 2560A
output terminals (internal).
For the accuracy specifications when RJ sensor 257875 is used and other
specifications of the 257875, see section 16.6.
Internal (INT):
A correction is performed using the temperature of the 2560A output
terminals (internal). For the specifications of the 2560A’s internal reference
junction temperature measurement accuracy and reference junction
compensation errors, see section 16.1.
Manual input
(MAN):
A correction is performed using a manually input temperature. Set the
temperature from the 2560A front panel (see section 6.6). To not apply
correction, set the temperature to 0.00°C.
Selectable range: –20.00°C to ++60.00°C
