27.Connect +10.0V ±0.1mV d-c reference voltage from the external voltage source to
ILIM+_EXTERNAL and ILIM-_EXTERNAL, pins 5 and 13, referenced to pin 12 (GND1) of
the BOP analog I/O connector (A2A5J6). Then send CAL:CLIM MAX, then CAL:ZERO com-
mands. This enables the BOP to recognize that the voltage at the ILIM+_EXTERNAL pin is
10.0V.
28.Set the BOP to minimum (maximum negative) output by sending CAL:VLIM MIN, then send
the CAL:ZERO command. This enables the BOP to recognize that the voltage at the VLIM-
_EXTERNAL pin is 10.0V.
29.Send CAL:ZERO to prepare for calibration of IOUT_M_UNIT (master output) control signal.
Connect the DVM to pin 6 (IOUT_M_UNIT) referenced to pin 1 (SGND) of the PAR/SER
CONTROL IN connector (A2A5J3). Set the BOP to zero output current by sending
CAL:IOUT ZERO. Send CAL:DATA commands as needed (see PAR. 4.3b) to adjust the
BOP output until the DVM reads 0V ±1mV.
30.Set the BOP to maximum positive output current by sending CAL:IOUT MAX. With the DVM
still connected to pin 6 (IOUT_M_UNIT) referenced to pin 1 (SGND) of the PAR/SER CON-
TROL IN connector measure the voltage output using the DVM. Send CAL:DATA commands
as needed (see PAR. 4.2.1a) until the DVM reading is +10V ±1.0mV.
31.Send CAL:ZERO to prepare for calibration of S_IN_PARALLEL (slave input) control signal.
Connect a 0V ±0.1mV d-c reference to pin 3 (S_IN_PARALLEL) referenced to pin 1 (SGND)
of the PAR/SER CONTROL IN connector (A2A5J3). Set the BOP to zero output current by
sending CAL:PAR ZERO. Connect the DVM across the sense resistor to measure the BOP
output current and send CAL:DATA commands as needed (see PAR. 4.3b) to adjust the
BOP output current until the DVM reads as close to zero as possible within tolerance speci-
fied in Table 4-4 for CURRENT ZERO.
NOTE: Accuracy of the 10V d-c reference must be ±0.1mV in order for the calibrated unit to
meet published specifications.
32.Connect a +10V ±0.1mV d-c reference to pin 3 (S_IN_PARALLEL) referenced to pin 1
(SGND) of the PAR/SER CONTROL IN connector (A2A5J3). Set the BOP to maximum posi-
tive output current by sending CAL:PAR MAX. Measure the output current using the DVM.
Send CAL:DATA commands as needed (see PAR. 4.3a) until the DVM reading is as speci-
fied in Table 4-3 for +FULL SCALE CURRENT.
33.Save the calibration levels by sending CAL:SAVE 12/21/2003. The characters at the end
are optional and represent the calibration date of the power supply. The date entered in this
manner is reported in the *idn? query.
