DVM Calibration
The DVM calibration procedure is semi-automatic in that it is accomplished
via software embedded in the Agilent 53147A/48A/49A. A computer and
an RS-232 serial cable are required to access the calibration software.
Equipment Required
A computer with an RS-232 serial interface and terminal software
Agilent 53150-60215 RS-232 Serial Cable
Agilent 6613C or 6614C Precision DC Power Supply
NOTE
To ensure that the results are valid, the Agilent 53147A/48A/49A and
the Agilent 6613C/6614C Precision DC Power Supply should be powered
on for at least 30 minutes prior to beginning the calibration procedure.
This allows the internal temperatures of the equipment to stabilize.
1
Press the
Display DVM
key on the Agilent 53147A/48A/49A.
2
Connect the DVM test leads to the DVM + and – connectors on the Agilent
53147A/48A/49A (red to + and black to –).
3
Connect the test prods to the + and – output connectors on the Agilent
6613C/6614C Precision DC Power Supply.
4
Set the 6613C/6614C Precision DC Power Supply to output exactly
+ 50.0 V.
5
Connect the Agilent 53150-60215 RS-232 Serial Cable between the
computer’s serial port (DB-25) and the Agilent 53147A/48A/49A’s serial
port (RJ-45).
6
Start the terminal software on the computer.
7
Send “
