6.9 Frequency Counter Test ( SMU2064 only)
The following procedure may be used to verify the accuracy of the Frequency Counter:
1. If you have not done so, install the DMM and place the covers back on to the computer. Ensure that the
computer has been on for at least one-half hour, with the covers on, before conducting this test.
2. Select the ACV function, autorange. Turn freq on.
3. Apply the following AC voltages to the V, + & - terminals. Check to see that the displayed reading on the
SMU2064 is within the indicated range of readings.

For ACI Frequency Counter test:
1. If you have not done so, install the DMM and place the covers back on to the computer. Ensure that the
computer has been on for at least one-half hour, with the covers on, before conducting this test.
2. Select the ACI function, autorange. Turn freq on.
3. Apply the following AC currents to the I,4 + & - terminals. Check to see that the displayed reading on the
DMM is within the tolerance appropriate for your application (e.g. 90 day or 1 year accuracy).
