Fluke PM6690 - Short Form Specification Test; Voltage Measurement Checks

Short Form Specification
Test
Sensitivity and Frequency Range
–
Recall the DEFAULT settings.
–
Press
INPUT A.
–
Select
50 W input impedance, 1x attenuation, MANual
trigger and
Trigger level 0V.
–
Connect a signal from a HF generator to a BNC power
splitter.
–
Connect the power splitter to Input A of your counter
and an oscilloscope.
–
Set the input impedance to 50 W on the oscilloscope.
–
Adjust the amplitude according to the following table.
Read the level on the oscilloscope. The timer/counter
should display the correct frequency.
–
Connect the signal to Input B.
–
Press
INPUT B.
–
Select
50 W input impedance, 1x attenuation, MANual
trigger and
Trigger level 0V.
– Press
MEAS FUNC ® Freq ® Freq A ®B
– Repeat the measurements above for Input B.
Voltage
–
Recall the DEFAULT settings.
–
Press
MEAS FUNC ® Volt ® Vpp ® A
–
Press
INPUT A and select DC coupling. Do not apply an
input signal to Input A yet.
–
Press
EXIT/OK.
–
The display should now indicate
(disregard the main parameter V
PP
):
V
MIN
= 0 ± 0.015 V and
V
MAX
= 0 ± 0.015 V
–
Adjust the current limit of the voltage source to
<200 mA.
–
Connect +2.500 V
DC
to Channel A, using the external
low-pass filter on the input.
–
The display should now indicate:
V
MIN
= 2.500 ± 0.040 V and
V
MAX
= 2.500 ± 0.040 V
–
Repeat the measurement with inverted polarity.
–
Press
INPUT A and select 10x.
–
Press
EXIT/OK.
CAUTION: Before the next step, make sure
the input impedance is still 1 MW. Apply
-
ing more than 12 V without proper current
limiting may cause extensive damage to
the main PCB, if the impedance is set to
50 W.
–
Change the DC level to +50.00 V.
–
The display should now indicate:
V
MIN
= 50.00 ± 0.65 V and
V
MAX
= 50.00 ± 0.65 V
–
Repeat the measurement with inverted polarity.
–
Disconnect the DC voltage from Channel A.
–
Remove the external low-pass filter.
–
Press
INPUT A and select 1x.
–
Press
EXIT/OK.
–
Connect a sinusoidal signal to Input A with an amplitude
of 4.000 Vpp and a frequency of 100 kHz.
– The display should now indicate: 4.000 ± 0.150 V
PP
.
– Press
INPUT A and select 10x.
– Press
EXIT/OK.
– Change the amplitude to 18.00 V
PP
.
– The display should now indicate:
18.00 ± 0.84 V
PP
.
– Disconnect the signal from Channel A.
– Press
MEAS FUNC ® Volt ® Vpp ®B
– Press
INPUT B and select DC coupling. Do not apply an
input signal to Input B yet.
–
Press
EXIT/OK.
–
The display should now indicate
(disregard the main parameter V
PP
):
V
MIN
= 0 ± 0.015 V and
V
MAX
= 0 ± 0.015 V
–
Proceed by repeating the measurements for Input B as
described above for Input A.
