1-14 Performance Verification
Verifying resistance
Check resistance by connecting accurate resistance values to the Model 2015 and verifying
that its resistance readings are within the specified limits.
CAUTION
Do not apply more than 1100V peak between INPUT HI and LO or more
than 350V peak between SENSE HI and LO, or instrument damage could
occur
.
Follow these steps to verify resistance accuracy:
1. Using shielded 4-wire connections, connect the Model 2015 INPUT and SENSE jacks
to the calibrator as shown in Figure 1-5.

ranges)
2. Set the calibrator for 4-wire resistance with external sense on.
3. Select the Model 2015 4-wire resistance function by pressing the
Ω
4 key, then choose
the SLOW integration rate with the RATE key.
4. Set the Model 2015 for the 100
Ω
range, and make sure the FILTER is on.
5. Recalculate reading limits based on actual calibrator resistance values.
