7-25. AC Voltage Amplitude Accuracy, Squarewave (NORMAL)
Note
This verification test is optional. It is not necessary to guarantee the full
calibration of the instrument. However, it may be useful when
troubleshooting an instrument when other functions and/or parameters are
incorrect.
The AC Voltage Amplitude Accuracy, Squarewave (NORMAL) tests the amplitude
accuracy at the NORMAL terminals. For this test, use the Fluke 5790A, an rms-
responding meter. For squarewaves, the measured value (in rms) should be exactly 1/2
the nominal value in peak-to-peak.
