7. Send the following command to output 0 V:
:SOUR2:VOLT 0
8. Note and record the DMM reading, and then send that value as the parameter for the following
command:
:CAL:PROT:SOUR2 <DMM_Reading>
9. Send the following command to output -10 V:
:SOUR2:VOLT -10
10. Note and record the DMM reading, and send that value as the parameter for the following
command:
:CAL:PROT:SOUR2 <DMM_Reading>
11. Repeat steps 4 through 10 for the 30 V range using Table 17-13 as a guide. Be sure to:
• Select the 30 V range using the :SOUR2:VOLT:RANG 30 command.
• Send the ±30 V source values where appropriate.
