Activating The Heater And Setting Test Temperatures - Keysight PD1500A Installation And Use Manual

Using the Device Heater
For example, to go from ambient temperature (~25  C) to 100  C with a 2  C
Tolerance may take up to 60 seconds.To go from Ambient to 100  C with a 1  C
Tolerance may take up to 90 seconds.

Activating the Heater and Setting Test Temperatures

When the heater/DUT temperature exceeds approximately
62
– Settling Time: Specify a time period (in seconds) to wait after the heater
reaches the specified temperature (within the specified Tolerance) before
triggering the DPT measurement.
– Temperature Control Timeout: Specify the maximum time period (in seconds)
to wait for the device to reach the specified temperature before triggering
the measurement. If the device does not reach the specified temperature
within this time period, the Double-Pulse Test aborts.
– Activate Heater: Turns the heater circuit on or off.
– Temperatures: Enter a single value or a semicolon (;) delimited list of
temperatures to heat the device to when running the DPT tests. This box is
grayed-out unless Activate Heater is checked.
When the heater/DUT temperature exceeds approximately 50  C,
the large red light on the Test Fixture turns on.
