Voltage Calibration - With Remote Sensing
Voltage Programming and Measurement
To guarantee a clean signal for calibration points 1 through 3, program the electronic load to at least
5% of the rated output current of the model being calibrated.
Step 1. Turn off the output. Connect a DMM and an electronic load to the output as shown in Test Setup A. If the elec-
tronic load is rated less than the voltage rating of the power supply, install a disconnect switch as shown. For 1500 VDC
models, connect a voltage divider as shown. Connect the remote sense leads to the output.
Step 2. Select the remote voltage programing and measurement calibration.
Front Panel Menu SCPI Command
Select System\Admin\Cal\Volt\Vrem.
Check that the voltmeter is connected and
select Next.
Specify remote sense voltage calibration:
CAL:VOLT:REM
Step 3. Select the first voltage calibration point and enter the data.
