[0002] During the production and manufacturing of batteries, due to process requirements, the batteries need to be charged and discharged in multiple links. The various parameters of the batteries will be differentiated during the charging and discharging process, and then the battery can be sorted and the process can be identified. The charging and discharging of the battery is carried out through the power supply equipment. As the main equipment for charging and discharging the battery, the power supply equipment needs to realize the constant voltage and constant current charging and discharging of the battery. The equipment has high precision and is crucial to battery production and manufacturing. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that its operation is stable and meets a certain parameter range during use. Therefore, the power supply equipment for battery charging and discharging needs to be calibrated according to the production cycle to ensure the accuracy of the power supply equipment in charging and discharging the battery.

[0003] However, in the production and testing of batteries, the battery itself is not charged and discharged individually. Often, during the production process, many batteries are placed in a tray for production, testing, circulation and other operations. Therefore, in the current production of various types of batteries, the tray carries a few or dozens of batteries, and as many as hundreds of batteries. Therefore, the matching charging and discharging power supply equipment are also multi-channel equipment. Therefore, for this kind of multi-channel power supply equipment, it is also necessary to conduct a comprehensive calibration. The traditional calibration method is often to manually calibrate the channels of the power supply equipment one by one, which has low work efficiency and the calibration is prone to introduce secondary errors.
