Calibration Adjustment Procedure
The following sections comprise the Calibration Adjustment Procedure. The
procedure is meant to bring the UUT back into specification following repair of
the UUT or when the UUT fails the Performance Test. The required equipment is
listed earlier in Table 2.
The Meter features closed-case calibration adjustment using known reference
sources. During the procedures, known reference source values are applied to
the meter; the Meter calculates correction factors and stores them in nonvolatile
memory.
Calibration Adjustment Counter
The Meter contains a calibration adjustment counter. The counter is incremented
each time a Calibration Adjustment Procedure is completed. The value in the
counter can be recorded and used to show that no adjustments have been made
during a calibration cycle.
