Verifying Resistance; Figure 1-12 Connections For Model 7700 Resistance Verification (100Ω To 10Mω Ranges) - Keithley 2700 Service Manual

Verifying resistance

Check resistance by connecting accurate resistance values to the Model 7700 and verifying
that its resistance readings are within the specified limits.
CAUTION
Follow these steps to verify resistance accuracy:

Do not apply more than 300V between plug-in module INPUT or SENSE
H and L terminal, or between any adjacent channels, or instrument dam-
age could occur.
Using shielded Teflon or equivalent cables in a 4-wire configuration, connect the
Model 7700 CH1 H and L INPUT terminals, and CH11 H and L SENSE terminals to
the calibrator as shown in

Install the Model 7700 in Slot 1 of the Model 2700, then turn on the power, and allow
the unit to warm up for two hours before proceeding. Be sure the front panel INPUTS
switch is set to the REAR position.
Set the calibrator for 4-wire resistance with external sense on.
Select the Model 2700 4-wire resistance function by pressing the Ω4 key. Close Chan-
nel 1 by pressing the CLOSE key and keying in 101.
Set the Model 2700 for the 100Ω range, and make sure the FILTER is on. Enable
OCOMP (offset-compensated ohms) for the 100Ω range test. (Press SHIFT then
OCOMP.)
Recalculate reading limits based on actual calibrator resistance values.
