Calibration Recommendation

IRS recommends a recalibration within 2 years.

The calibration should be performed at multiple calibration points for all 7 ranges. IRS recommends measuring at least the following currents.

RangeCalibration points
100 uA20 uA, 40 uA, 60 uA, 80 uA, 100 uA
1 mA0.2 mA, 0.4 mA, 0.6 mA, 0.8 mA, 1 mA
10 mA2 mA, 4 mA, 6 mA, 8 mA, 10 mA
100 mA20 mA, 40 mA, 60 mA, 80 mA, 100 mA
1 A0.2 A, 0.4 A, 0.6 A, 0.8 A, 1 A
10 A2 A, 4 A, 6 A, 8 A, 10 A
100 A20 A, 40 A, 60 A, 80 A, 100 A

CMM values should be captured with the function (IRS.CmmIV.Lib.CmmCommands).ReadMinimumAverageMaximum. This function returns the value averaged since last read.

Before capturing a valid value, enable the calibration current, perform a dummy read and wait 100 ms.

The fluctuations of the power source used should not exceed 0.1% of the nominal value.
