1.8.5 Resistance verification
Resistance verification is performed by connecting accurate
resistance values to the instrument and verifying that Model
2002 resistance readings are within stated limits.
Follow the steps below to verify resistance measurement
accuracy.
CAUTION
Do not apply more than 1100V peak
between INPUT HI and LO or more
than 150V peak between SENSE HI and
LO, or instrument damage may occur.
20Ω – 2M range verification
1. Using shielded 4-wire connections, connect the Model
2002 to the calibrator, as shown in Figure 1-6. Be sure
to connect calibrator HI and LO terminals to the Model
2002 HI and LO terminals (including SENSE HI and
LO) as shown.
2. Turn on the Model 2002 and the calibrator, and allow a
four-hour warm-up period before making
measurements.
3. Set the calibrator for 4-wire resistance (external sense
on).
4. Restore Model 2002 factory default conditions, as
explained in paragraph 1.7.

5. Set Model 2002 operating modes as follows:
A. From normal display, press CONFIG then Ω4.
B. Select SPEED, then press ENTER.
C. Select HIACCURACY, then press ENTER.
D. Select FILTER, then press ENTER.
E. Select AVERAGING, then press ENTER.
F. Using the cursor and range keys, set the averaging
parameter to 10 readings, then press ENTER.
G. Select OFFSETCOMP, then press ENTER.
H. Select ON, then press ENTER. (Note that OFFSET-
COMP cannot be used with the 200kΩ and 2MΩ
ranges.)
I. Press EXIT to return to normal display.
6. Select the Ω4 function, and place the instrument on the
20Ω range. (If the FILT annunciator is off, press the
FILTER key to enable the filter.)
7. Set the calibrator to output 19Ω, and allow the reading
to settle. Verify that the reading is within the limits stat-
ed in Table 1-8.
NOTE
Resistance values available in the Model
5700A calibrator may be slightly different
than the stated nominal resistance values.
Limits stated in Table 1-8 should be recal-
culated based on actual calibrator resis-
tance values.
