4-45. 5725A Amplifier Output
Boosted voltage operation produces high voltage at higher
current levels than normally available from the calibrator.
During boosted voltage operation, the potential risk of injury or
fatal accident is greater than during normal operation.
Refer to the 5725A Instruction Manual for setup and installation
instructions.
Proceed as follows to set a boosted output from the 5725A Amplifier:
1. Press
2. Install the 5725A, as described in the 5725A Instruction Manual.
3. Connect the UUT as described earlier in this chapter under "Connecting the
