CALIBRATION
This section provides information
necessary
to:
(1
)
Verify that
this
instrument
meets
the
electrical
specifications
in
Section
1
,
General
Information,
(2)
verify that
all
controls function properly,
and
(3)
perform
all
internal
adjustments.
The
Part
I--
Performance Check procedure checks
the
electrical
specifications
listed
in
section
1
without
making any
internal
adjustments.
The
Part
II
—
Adjustment and Performance Check procedure
provides
a
complete
sequential
check
of
instrument
performance concurrent
with
a
complete
sequential
adjustment
of
internal controls.
A
separate Operators
Checkout
Procedure,
inThe
Installation
section
of this
inanual,
can be used
to
check
only the functions
of
the
front-panel
controls
and
connectors.
PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
USING THESE
PROCEDURES
Both
the
Part
l-Performance
Check
and
Part
11-
Adjustment
and Performance Check
procedures
are
divided
into
functional
block
subsections
(eg.,
A.
TRIGGERING
SYSTEM
and
B.
HORIZONTAL
SYSTEM).
The
order
in
which
the subsections
and
steps (A1,
A2,
B1,
B2,
etc.)
appear
in
each
procedure
is
the
recommended
sequence
for
accomplishing
a
performance check
or
calibration
of
the
instrument.
Subsections
within
either
procedure can be performed
independently, as
can each
step within
any
subsection.
Refer
to Partial
Procedures
for
specific instructions
on
performing
either
a
partial
Performance Check
or
a
partial
Adjustment and Performance
Check.
All
functional
block
subsections begin with
a
list
of
required
test
equipment,
followed by
instructions
for
Before
You
Begin and
the
list
of
Preliminary Control
Settings
for
that
subsection
(e.g.,
TRIGGERING
SYSTEM
Preliminary Control
Settings,
etc.).
Each
step
contains
separate
Setup
Conditions which,
if
applicable,
include
the instrument
control
settings,
an
illustrated test
setup,
and
test
equipment
control
settings.
The
instrument
and
test
equipment
control
settings
listed
in
the
Setup
Conditions
for
each
step
may
include additional
settings,
changes from
the previous
step,
or
changes
to
the
Preliminary
Control
Settings
making
it
possible
to
perform
partial
procedures.
The
Setup
Conditions
illustrate
the setup
and
the
best
equipment
required
to
accomplish
the step
instructions.
Partial
Procedures
Part
I
—
Performance Check.
To perform
a
partial
Performance Check
procedure,
first
determine
which
electrical
specifications
are
to
be checked. Table
5-1,
Performance
Check
Summary,
lists
the
applicable
electrical
specifications
and
provides references
to
the
step(s)
in
which
the
performance requirements
are
checked.
The Performance Check
Index,
at
the
start of
Part
l-Performance Check,
provides
a
convenient
means
for
locating
the
desired
subsections
and
steps.
For
example:
If
the external
trigger
amplifier
had been
repaired
and
a
performance
check
was
considered
necessary, use the
Performance Check
Summary
table to
locate
the
specifications affected by the
repair,
and
the
step
title
of
Part
l-Performance
Check
in
which
those
performance requirements
are checked.
Then
use
the
Performance
Check
Index
to
locate
the
TRIGGER
SYSTEM
subsection
and
the step
and page
number
of
the
applicable
step(s).
Any
step
of
a
subsection
can be performed
separately by
following the
instructions
given below.
1
Locate the
desired subsection
and
applicable steps
(eg
,
B1,
B2,
B4,
etc
)
with the
Performance Check
Summary
table
and
the
Performance Check
Index.
2.
Perform
the
Performance Check
Power-Up Sequence
at
the
start of
Part
l-Performance Check. Also
follow the
instructions
under Before
You
Begin and
Preliminary
Control Settings
at
the
beginning
of
the subsection.
3.
Perform
the
Setup
Conditions
instructions
for
the
desired
step.
Disregard
any
control settings
which
are
the
same
as those
under
Preliminary Control
Settings.
4.
Proceed with
the
lettered instructions
(e.g.,
a,
b,
c,
etc.).
NOTE
If
the steps
performed
are consecutive,
it
is
not
necessary
to
repeat
the
Preliminary
Control Settings
after
the
first
step.
However,
when
a
step
is
skipped,
the Preliminary
Control Settings
must
be performed
again.
Part
II
—Adjustment
and Performance Check.
Although
each
step
in
the
Part
11-Adjustment
and
Performance
Check
procedure
can
be
performed
independently,
we
recommend
that
the
entire
subsection
be performed
if
any adjustments
are
made.
Table
5-1,
Performance
Check
Summary,
lists
the
applicable
electrical
specifications
and
provides references
to
the
step(s)
in
which
the
performance requirements
are
checked and
appropriate
adjustments
are
made. The
Adjustment and Performance Check
Index,
at
the
start of
Part
11-Adjustment
and Performance
Check, provides
a
convenient
means
for
locating
the desired subsections
and
steps.
For
example:
If
the
A1
Interface
board
had
been
replaced,
use
the
Performance Check
Summary
table to locate
the
specifications affected
by the
repair,
and
the
step
title(s)
of
Part
11-Adjustment
and
Performance
Check
in
which
those
performance
requirements
are
checked
or
adjusted.
Then
use
the
Adjustment and Performance Check
Index
to
locate
the
HORIZONTAL SYSTEM
subsection
and
the step
and page
number
of
the appropriate
step(s).
