Section 2 Notes: The Relative Uncertainty specification is that measurement uncertainty of the 6622A Series Automatic DCC Resistance Bridges and 2 times the standard deviation of the sample set, but does not include the uncertainty of the Reference Standards. This Relative Uncertainty specification is applicable after the measurement has stabilized for the applicable Itest current applied to Rx, and for the reversal rate that is greater than or equal to those in the recommended test setups in Section 3.
The following information describes typical displays and corresponding menu descriptions for associated function keys for the additional functionality provided with the T-Option. Figures 3-1, 3-2, and 3-3 illustrate the model 6622A Series menu tree with the T-Option installed. 08 November 2022...

ITS- Celsius The main menu with the T-Option installed is identical to the 6622A Series without the option installed with the exception that there is additional available information. Of the additional information available the most pertinent is the units can be in thermometry based units and the mode can indicate a temperature scale.

Section 3 Function Key <Fn-1> ,<IPTS 68>, allows entry to the IPTS-68 measurement menu and enables the IPTS-68 coefficients for the probe to be viewed and or edited. Function Key <Fn-2> ,<ITS 90>, allows entry to the ITS-90 measurement menu and enables the ITS-90 coefficients for the probe to be viewed and or edited.

Section 3 When either the <Edit Neg> or <Edit Pos> key is pressed the PASSWORD CHECK display menu is activated. Before the selected set of coefficients can be changed the correct password must be entered. If an incorrect password is entered, the error message "Invalid Password" will be displayed and the edit session will be terminated.

Section 3 Press <Edit> and use arrow keys to move the highlight to the data line to be changed. Modify data and press <Ok>. A resistance value > 0 for the ice point resistance (R0) or triple point of water resistance (Rtpw), MUST be entered for the probe before a measurement can take place.
This section contains information regarding the measurement of probes in the range of 1m ohm to 100k ohms. This guide is provided for manual front panel control of the model 6622A Series bridge with the T-Option installed. An operation guide for full automatic control of the model 6622A bridge, in thermometry applications, is provided in the BridgeWorks-C Software User’s...
Section 3 3.6. BRIDGEWORKS-C DATA ACQUISITION SOFTWARE The BridgeWorks-C Data Acquisition Software is the control software for the model 6622A Bridge. Using the 6622A with the BridgeWorks-C Data Acquisition Software will increase the functionality and the productivity of the bridge. Adding optional 6664B and/or 6664-2A Scanner(s) to work along with 6622A and software control will create a fully automated Resistance Measurement System.
4.2.1. PURPOSE The purpose of the procedure in this section is to assure that the model 6622A Series Bridge functions properly and meets the manufacturer’s additional specifications for T-Option. It is recommended that these procedures be performed after any corrective maintenance activity, or if the operator perceives a problem.
Section 4 4.3. MODEL 6622A BRIDGE WITH T-OPTION The following procedure is can be automated in using a test sequence BridgeWorks-C Data Acquisition Software if the 6622A is connected through a 6664B scanner. 4.3.1. Set Up Ensure that the model 6622A is switched on as well as the optional 6664B, and 6634A Resistance Standard, if installed.
