Verification
Introduction
This chapter contains test procedures that check the operation and calibration of the Agilent 6060B and 6063B Electronic
Loads. The tests are performed from the front panel and can be used to determine which circuits are faulty when
troubleshooting. There are some transient, trigger, and pulse functions that require a GP-IB controller and will not be
verified with manual testing from the front panel. The following tests will verify, with a high level of confidence, that the
Electronic Load is operating properly without testing all of its capabilities.
At the end of this chapter are performance record tables where actual measured values can be recorded.
Test Equipment Required
Table 2-1 lists the test equipment required to perform the tests in this chapter. Test setups for the tests are shown in Figures
2-1 through 2-3. Make sure the sense switch on the rear of the load is set to the LCL position since local sensing is used in
all of the test setups. Use adequate wire gauge when making connections (see Chapter 3 in the Operating Manual).
Note The Electronic Load must pass the selftest at power turn-on before the following tests can be performed.
If the unit fails selftest, refer to the overall troubleshooting procedures in Figure 3-1 in Chapter 3.
