XDC 6000 Watt and 12000 Watt Series DigitalProgrammable DC Power Supply Operating Manual

Calibration (6000 Watt only)
B–6 TM-XDOP-01XN
Setup and Equipment
• 6 digit DVM
• current shunt
• variable load
• 0-10 V DC power supply (analog programming interface)
• Load wiring sized for the maximum available output current. See Table 2-4 on
page 2–16.
To set up to calibrate output voltage and current:
Connect a load to the output of the power supply and a current shunt in series.
You will need to use the DVM to measure both the voltage at the output of the
power supply and the voltage across the shunt. You will need to convert the
voltage across the shunt to a current measurement.
To set up to calibrate the analog programming interface, you will need a 0-10V
power supply to provide a programming signal to the voltage and current
programming lines. You will also need to connect the DVM to measure the signal
at the readback lines.
