Analog Bus ADC

This adjustment calibrates the gain of the analog bus (ABUS). The ABUS is connected to ground (ACOM) and the ADC is zeroed. The ABUS is then connected to the 10V reference and measured. The ratio of the measured value to the ideal value is the ABUS gain calibration constant. This value is stored in the UUT. A comparison between the ABUS and the multimeter is also made and printed in the test report for informational reasons.

In Case of Difficulty

If this adjustment fails, perform the following steps in order:

  1. Check the equipment setup (see above). If the setup is incorrect, make the necessary corrections and rerun the adjustment.

  2. If this adjustment fails with the equipment set up properly, refer to the troubleshooting section of the signal generator's service guide. If you do not have a printed copy of the service guide (Option OBW), one is available either on the CD-ROM that came with your signal generator shipment or on the Keysight Website.

  3. If you cannot correct the problem using the troubleshooting procedures in the Service Guide, obtain service from Keysight Technologies. Refer to Contacting Keysight Technologies.
