Test Preparations
You need to finish the following preparations before performing the performance
verification test.
1. Perform self-test to make sure that the instrument can work normally.
Connect the instrument to AC power supply using the power cord provided with
the accessories. Press the power switch key at the front panel; the instrument
starts and performs self-test. You can press Utility  Test/Cal after power-on
to examine the self-test information (including the top board, bottom board, fan
and temperature). If the self-test fails, please turn off and then turn on the
instrument to perform the self-test again and examine the self-test information.
If the self-test still fails, please contact RIGOL. Make sure that the reason that
results in the self-test failure are found and solved. Perform the performance
verification test only after the instrument passes the self-test.
Notes:
 Before connecting the power, make sure that the setting of the voltage
selector at the rear panel of the power supply matches the AC power supply
to be connected and the fuse currently installed matches the input voltage.
The input voltages supported by DP800 series and the matching fuses are
as shown in the table below.
DP831A/DP821A
100
115
230
100Vac ± 10%, 50Hz to 60Hz, T5A fuse
115Vac ± 10%, 50Hz to 60Hz, T5A fuse
230Vac ± 10% (maximum 250Vac), 50Hz to 60Hz, T2.5A fuse
DP832A/DP832/DP811A
100
115
230
100Vac ± 10%, 50Hz to 60Hz, T6.3A fuse
115Vac ± 10%, 50Hz to 60Hz, T6.3A fuse
230Vac ± 10% (maximum 250Vac), 50Hz to 60Hz, T3.15A fuse
Note: The upper limit of the input voltage supported by DP800 series is
250Vac.
 Before performing the self-test, make sure that there is no connection at
the front and rear panel terminals of the power supply.
2. Make sure that the power supply is within the calibration period (1 year). If
calibration is required, please contact RIGOL.
3. Run the instrument for at least 30 minutes.
