4 Performance Tests and Calibration
Gain Verification
This test checks the full- scale reading accuracy of the
instrument. Verification checks are performed only for those
functions and ranges with unique gain calibration constants.
DC Voltage Gain Verification Test
1 Connect the calibrator to the front panel HI and LO input
terminals.
2 Select each function and range in the order shown below.
Provide the input shown in the table below.
3 Make a measurement and observe the result. Compare
measurement results to the appropriate test limits shown
in the table. (Be certain to allow for appropriate source
settling when using the Fluke 5520A.)
