CHECKING
AND
ADJUSTING
WARNING:
Before switching-on, ensure that the instrument has
been
installed
in
accordance with the
instructions
outlined
in
Section
5
of the
Operating Manual.
The
opening
of covers or
removal
of
parts,
except those
to
which
access
can be gained
by hand
is
likely
to
expose
live
parts,
and
accessible
terminals
may
also
be
liw.
The
instrument
shall
be disconnected
from
all
voltage sources before
any replacement
or
maintenance and
repair
during
which
the instrument
will
be opened.
If
afterwards,
any
adjustment,
maintenance
or
repair
of the
opened
instrument
under
voltage
conditions
is
inevitable,
it
shall
be
carried
out only
by
a skilled
person
who
is
aware
of the
hazard
involved.
Bear
in
mind
that capacitors
inside
the instrument
may
still
be charged even
if
the instrument
is
separated
from
all
voltage sources.
The
tolerances
in
this
chapter correspond to the factory
data,
which
only apply
to
a
completely
re-adjusted
instrument.
These
tolerances
may
deviate
from
those
mentioned
in
the Technical Data. (Chapter
2.
of
the
Operating Manual).
For
a
complete
re-adjustment of the instrument the
sequence
in
this
chapter should be adhered
too.
When
in-
dividual
components,
especially
semi-conductors
are replaced,
the
relevant section
should be completely
re-
adjusted.
To
calibrate
this
measuring instrument only
reference voltages
and
measuring
equipment
with
the required
accuracy should be
applied.
If
such
equipment
is
not
available,
comparative measurements can be
made
with
another
calibrated
PM2521.
However,
theoretically
in
extreme
cases,
the
tolerances
may
leave
some room
for
doubt.
The
measuring arrangement should be such
that
the
measurement
cannot
be
affected
by
external influences.
Protect
the
circuit
against
temperature
variations
(fans,
sun).
With
all
the
measurement
the
cables
should be kept
as
short
as possible; at
higher frequencies
co-axial leads
should be
used.
Non
screened measuring
cables
may
act
as
serials
so that the
measuring instrument
will
measure
LF
voltage
values or
hum.
voltage.
Before checking
and
adjusting,
remove
the
top-cover.
Make
sure that
the cable
from
the
power
supply
is
connected with
X802.
In
the software there
are
two
subroutines
which
are
used
for adjusting
the
PM2521.
To
call
these subroutines
short
circuit
TP10
and TP1
1
for
one second
(first
subroutine)
and
repeat
it
for the
next
subroutine. After
using these
subroutines the
PM2521
should be
reset.
(Switch the
PM2521
off
and
on).
