Introduction 3-1.
Information in this section tells you how to operate the 732B and 734A on battery and ac
line power. This section begins with a description of the features of the models covered
in this manual. Instructions for how to power the standard, connect it to other
instruments, and use it to make a voltage transfer follow. Other operating topics,
including minimization of errors during measurements, are included here.
Unless you purchased a calibration option and shipment under battery power (see
Section 1 or a Fluke Catalog for details), the 732B is shipped from the factory with the
internal battery disconnected. (The BAT switch on the rear panel is in the position
marked
). On receipt, connect the ac line cord to line power as described in Section 2.
After 2 hours, set the BAT switch to the position marked l. Verify that the AC PWR
indicator is lit.
Note
If your 732B was shipped cold, you will need to calibrate it against a
traceable standard as described in Section 5 before you begin using it. For
best results, leave the standard powered for 14 days before you calibrate
and begin using it.
To maintain the state of calibration as a traceable standard, the 732B must continue to
receive uninterrupted operating voltage from the line power or from the internal battery,
which provides approximately 72 hours of off-line operation when fully charged.
