Manual Change
This manual change describes the procedure when use the Agilent 16353A/16353H
Standard Resistor Set instead of the Agilent 16340A RC-Box in 4339B Adjustment. When
use the Agilent 16340A RC-Box, refer to the Chapter 2 (Adjustments) in this manual.

To avoid the electrical shock hazard by eventual touch, use only the 11058A for
connection. Each of the jumper’s banana plug conductor is equipped with an
retractive protective sleeve.
Setup
This setup obtains the data to adjust the actual source output voltage equal to the set value.

Perform the following steps as the program instructs.
Step 1. Connect the 3458A “INPUT HI” post to the V Measurement Adapter “+” post using the
red lead of the Banana-Banana Jumper.
Step 2. Connect the 3458A “INPUT LO” post to the V Measurement Adapter “Ground” post using
the black lead of the Banana-Banana Jumper.
Step 3. Set the V Measurement Adapter’s switches as follows:

Step 4. Connect the Shunt Connector directly to the 4339B’s “Ground” and “Guard” connectors.
Step 5. Connect the V Measurement Adapter’s “Output” cable to the 4339B “Output” connector.
Step 6. Connect the V Measurement Adapter’s “Interlock” cable to the 4339B “Interlock”
connector.
Step 7. Set the V Measurement Adapter’s Interlock Switch “Output” to “Enable”.

Upon the program instruction, perform the following steps.
Step 1. Connect the RC Box Adapter to the 16353A/16353H Standard Resistor Set.
Step 2. Connect the Dual Banana-BNC(m) cable to the RC Box Adapter’s “Monitor H” connector.
Step 3. Connect the other end of the Dual Banana-BNC(m) cable to the 3458A “INPUT”
connector.
CAUTION
To prevent electrostatic noise which may cause error in the adjustment data, do not move
the RC Box Adapter cables while the 4339B is in measurement.
