Performing the Calibration Procedure

Table B-1 lists the equipment required for calibration. Figure B-1 shows the test setup.
NOTE:
You do not have to do a complete calibration each time. You may calibrate only the
voltage or current and proceed to "Saving the Calibration Constants." However, before
you calibrate OVP, you must first calibrate the output voltage.
The following parameters may be calibrated:
♦
ac output voltage
♦
output voltage measurement
♦
overvoltage protection (OVP)
♦
ac output current
♦
output current measurement
♦
output impedance
Before calibrating the output impedance, you must first calibrate the output voltage and the output curent.
