Step 3: Calibrate compliance
1. Connect the digital multimeter (DMM) to the Model 6220/6221 OUTPUT
jack, as shown in Figure 17-3. Set the DMM to measure DC voltage with
auto range enabled.
2. Send these commands in order to calibrate compliance using the
<DMM_Reading> parameter (actual digital multimeter reading) for each
step:
OUTP ON ‘ Turn on output.
SOUR:CURR:RANG 2e-3 ‘ Select 2mA range.
SOUR:CURR 2e-3 ‘ Output +2mA for cal.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 20 ‘ Set compliance to +20V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate +20V using reading.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 0.1 ‘ Set compliance to +0.1V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate +0.1V using reading.
SOUR:CURR -2e-3 ‘ Output -2mA for cal.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 20 ‘ Set compliance to -20V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate -20V using reading.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 0.1 ‘ Set compliance to -0.1V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate -0.1V using reading.
SOUR:CURR 2e-3 ‘ Output +2mA for cal.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 100 ‘ Set compliance to +100V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate +100V using reading.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 21 ‘ Set compliance to +21V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate +21V using reading.
SOUR:CURR -2e-3 ‘ Output -2mA for cal.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 100 ‘ Set compliance to -100V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate -100V using reading.
SOUR:CURR:COMP 21 ‘ Set compliance to -21V
CAL:PROT:SENS <DMM_Reading> ‘ Calibrate -21V using reading.
OUTP OFF ‘ Turn off output.
