[1] Must allow for source and Meter settling before recording reading.
[2] When using the relative mode (RELΔ) to compensate for offsets.
[3] The Meter accuracy is not specified at this frequency with Low-pass filter on. The display reading limits shown in table 4, checks
that the Low-pass filter is active and follows an expected roll-off curve.
[4] With a film capacitor or better, using relative mode (REL Δ) to zero residual.
[5] Test limits are mathematically guard banded to ensure performance, at 20 kHz and lower.
[6] To obtain full accuracy in DC mV, Temperature, ohms, and LoΩ, let the Meter stabilize for 20 minutes after using LoZ.
[7] To avoid calibrator overload/current limit condition, step the calibrator output to 60 V and then 120 V.
Calibration Adjustment
The Meter features closed-case calibration adjustment using known reference sources.
The Meter measures the applied reference source, calculates correction factors and stores
the correction factors in nonvolatile memory.
The following sections present the features and Meter pushbutton functions that can be
used during the Calibration Adjustment Procedure.
Before you begin the adjustment procedure, the Meter must be allowed to reach the
ambient temperature of the lab environment. Depending on temperature gradient, this
could take up to several hours.
Perform the Calibration Adjustment Procedure should the Meter fail any performance test
steps listed in Table 4.
