8.1.5.1 Calibration Procedure
For details about the calibration procedure, see Figure 8-2, “6241A Calibration Procedure (1).”
1. Use CAL1 to enter the calibration mode.
2. When executing all calibration items, initialize the calibration data by using XINI
only once before calibration is started.
3. When executing a voltage calibration, refer to Section 8.1.3, “Connections”, to
connect units.
4. Set the calibration mode as the operation mode by using OPR.
5. Conduct calibration according to Figure 8-3, “6241A Calibration Procedure (2)”
or Figure 8-4, “6241A Calibration Procedure (3).”
6. Press SBY to set the Standby mode.
7. Select XWR to store the calibration data in the non-volatile memory.
8. Select CAL0 to complete calibration.
8.1.5.2 Voltage-source and Voltage-limiter Calibration
1. Select the voltage calibration mode.
Voltage-source: XVS
Voltage Hi limiter: XVLH
Voltage Lo limiter: XVLL
2. Select the range.
300 mV range: XR3
3 V range: XR4
30 V range: XR5
3. Using XDAT, set the DMM data input mode.
4. Set up the DMM read value using XD data.
5. Select XNXT to proceed to the full-scale calibration mode.
6. Set up the DMM read value using XD data.
7. Select XNXT to exit from the DMM data input mode.
8. Select XADJ to proceed to the zero calibration data fine adjustment mode.
9. Verify the zero calibration value.
XUP and XDN can fine-adjust the calibration coefficient.
10. XNXT shifts to full-scale calibration data fine adjustment mode.
