EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER OPERATION MANUAL EA008 High Resistance & pA Measurement Adapter • • • • Accurate Measurements down to pAmp levels. Ideal for High resistance measurements to 1Tohm Five measurement ranges Supplied with Virtual Front Panel Software for PC. The EA008 adapter for the 3041 & 3010 eliminates the need for a separate electrometer instrument. The low cost EA008 provides 5 current measurement ranges down to 10nA with a resolution of 1pA.
EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER OPERATION MANUAL Connections to the 3000 series Calibrator The EA008 15 pin d-type connector connects to the ‘adaptor interface’ connector on the front panel of the 3000 series calibrator using the 15 pin cable supplied. For resistance measurement it is also required to connect the red & black 4mm sockets on the adaptor to the voltage output sockets on the front panel of the 3000 series calibrator.
EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER OPERATION MANUAL Measure High Value resistance. 1: Connect to calibrator as above. 2: Start the VFP program, select com port as required. 3: Click ‘resistance’ button 4: Click on resistance range required or the ‘Auto range’ button. 5: With inputs open circuit click the ‘Set infinity’ button. 7: Using the drop down box select the voltage to measure the resistance at.
EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER OPERATION MANUAL The main screen comprises of a main reading display, range selection buttons and function selection buttons. Sampling is indicated on the main display by Functions : Current Measurement The current measurement function provides five ranges to measure current: 100uA • 10uA • 1uA • 100nA • 10nA Functions: Resistance Measurement The resistance measurement function provides five ranges.
EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER OPERATION MANUAL The resistance display will show resistance in green, with a smaller display of current in blue Auto Range Function Use the AUTO button to turn on the autoranging function. Click AUTO again or select a range button to turn off autoranging. Filter Function Use the filter function to provide a ‘walking window’ type filtering on the readings (based on 3 samples) When filter is on, the display will indicate Transmille Ltd.
EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER OPERATION MANUAL Null Function (Current Measurement) The null function allows each current range to be nulled independently. To set the null, the terminals should be OPEN CIRCUIT. If auto range a null. is selected, the virtual front panel will step through each range and perform Set Infinity Function (Resistance Measurement) The set infinity function allows The infinity point of each range to be set independently.
EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER OPERATION MANUAL Handling Precautions The adapter is designed for mechanical stability, but should not be subjected to excessive shock or be dropped. Transportation is recommended using the original packaging with avoidance of extreme changes of temperature. Servicing Information The adapter is provided certified from the factory, and uses precision components and are not user repairable.
