The NEW REF (New Reference) key is active when error mode is in operation, and sets the
current output value as a new reference for meter error computation.
The SETUP (Setup Menu) key puts the Calibrator into setup mode. The setup menu is shown in
the Control Display. Choose Setup options with the softkeys below the Control Display.
The RESET (Reset Calibrator) key aborts the Calibrators current operation and changes it to the
power-up default condition, except when it is used by remote control.
The CE (Clear Entry) key clears a partially-completed keypad entry from the Control Display. If
there is a partially-completed entry when is pushed, the output is unaffected.
The EDIT FIELD (Edit Output Display Field) key and its left/right arrow keys provide step
adjustment of the output signals. If any of these keys are pushed or the knob is rotated, a digit on
the Output Display is highlighted and the output increments or decrements as the knob is rotated.
If a digit goes past 0 or 9, the digit to its left or right is carried. An error shows on the Control
Display. The difference between the original (reference) output and the new output is shown.
The and keys adjust the magnitude of changes by moving the highlighted digit. lets
you move from voltage or current to frequency and back. In practice, for voltage and current
outputs, the knob and arrow keys are used to adjust output until the UUT reads correctly. The error
display then shows the UUT deviation from the reference.
