Step Description Front Panel SCPI
1 Select the low voltage range. [Menu]>System > Admin > Cal >
AC.
Then select the Low range.
CAL:VOLT155
2 Select the first voltage
calibration point.
Select Next. The information field should
indicate:
Enter P1 measured data
CAL:LEVP1
*OPC?
3 Measure the output voltage
with the DMM and enter the
data.
Enter the measurement from the external
DMM in the Measured Data field. Press
[Select] or [Enter] when done.
CAL:DATA <data>
4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second, third, fourth, and fifth calibration points. Note that the SCPI com-
mand should use P2, P3, P4, and P5 in place of P1. Similarly, the front-panel Enter P1 measured
data message from step 2 will indicate P2, P3, P4, or P5.
5 Select Next or press Back to finish this part of the calibration.
AC Voltage High Range
Use the same DMM configuration as for the AC Voltage Low Range calibration.
Step Description Front Panel SCPI
1 Select the high voltage
range.
[Menu]>System > Admin > Cal >
AC.
Then select the High range.
CAL:VOLT310
2 Select the first voltage
calibration point.
Select Next. The information field should
indicate:
Enter P1 measured data
CAL:LEVP1
*OPC?
3 Measure the output voltage
with the DMM and enter the
data.
Enter the measurement from the external
DMM in the Measured Data field. Press
[Select] or [Enter] when done.
CAL:DATA <data>
4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second, third, fourth, and fifth calibration points. Note that the SCPI com-
mand should use P2, P3, P4, and P5 in place of P1. Similarly, the front-panel Enter P1 measured
data message from step 2 will indicate P2, P3, P4, or P5.
5 Select Next or press Back to finish this part of the calibration.
Current Low Range
Connect a precision shunt resistor to the output. The shunt resistor should be able to measure at least
120% of the output’s full-scale current. Connect the Keysight 3458A DMM across the shunt resistor.
Connect the Keysight 6060B electronic load to the AC source's output. Select the full-scale (FS), Low
Range current measurement value from the Current Table for the model being calibrated, 4 A for the
AC6801B.
