Figure 6-6. AC Voltage Frequency Verification Setup
Set the Calibrator Mainframe to SCOPE mode, with the Volt menu on the display. Press
O on the Calibrator Mainframe to activate the output. Then follow these steps to
verify AC Voltage frequency.
1. Set the PM 6680’s FUNCTION to measure frequency on channel A with auto
trigger, measurement time set to 1 second or longer, 1MΩ impedance, and filter off.
2. Using the BNC cable, connect the SCOPE connector on the Calibrator Mainframe to
PM 6680 channel A.
3. Program the Calibrator Mainframe to output 2.1 V at each frequency listed in Table
6-23.
4. Allow the PM 6680 reading to stabilize, then record the PM 6680 reading for each
frequency listed in Table 6-23. Compare to the tolerance column of Table 6-23.
