Test considerations
WARNING
The maximum common-mode voltage (voltage between INPUT/OUTPUT
- terminals and chassis ground) is 30V DC. Exceeding this value may
cause a shock hazard.
CAUTION
The maximum voltage between INPUT/OUTPUT sense (S) terminals is
1V. Exceeding this voltage may result in instrument damage.
When performing the verification procedures:
•
Be sure to restore factory front panel defaults as previously outlined.
•
Make sure that the test equipment is fully warmed up and properly connected to the
Model 2510 INPUT or OUTPUT terminals as required.
•
Be sure that the Model 2510 output is turned on before making measurements.
•
Be sure the test equipment is set up for the proper function and range.
•
Allow the Model 2510 output signal to settle before making a measurement.
•
Do not connect test equipment to the Model 2510 through a scanner, multiplexer, or
other switching equipment.
Adjusting setpoints
Before making many verification measurements, you must properly adjust the setpoint as
covered below.
1.
First select the function to be tested as indicated in the procedure.
2.
Press any one of the four EDIT keys (

Voltage accuracy
Output voltage accuracy
Follow the steps below to verify that Model 2510 output voltage accuracy is within speci-
fied limits. This test involves setting the output voltage to a specific value and accurately mea-
suring the voltage with a DMM.
1.
With the power off, connect the digital multimeter to the Model 2510 OUTPUT termi-
nals, as shown in Figure 1-1.
2.
Turn on the Model 2510 and DMM, and allow them to warm up for at least one hour.
3.
Select the multimeter DC volts measuring function, and choose the 20V range.
4.
Press the Model 2510 V key to select the voltage function, and make sure the source
output is turned on.
