Performance Test Procedures
To test each of the Meter’s functions and operating ranges, do the following:
1. Referring to the performance test tables (Tables 3 and 4), set the Meter to the desired
function and range for each test.
2. Connect the source to the appropriate UUT’s input jacks.
3. Apply the indicated output from the source.
4. The reading on the UUT display should be within the low and high limits shown in
Table 3 or 4.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each function and range in the performance test tables.
If the UUT fails to perform within the low-high range indicated for each test in Table 3 or
Table 4, adjust the Meter and go through the performance test procedure again. If the
UUT still fails to perform within the ranges indicated, then repair is necessary. Refer to
“Contacting Fluke” to locate a service center.
