The ENTER key loads a newly-entered output value, shown on the Control Display, into the
Calibrator, which shows on the Output Display. The new value can come from the numeric keypad.
If you push without identifying the units for the entry, in most cases the Calibrator keeps the
units that were last used. This lets you, for example, enter 1 mV, and then later enter 10 to get 10 V.
(The "V" units were saved from the last entry, but not the multiplier, "m".) In the error (edit) mode,
with no value puts the output to the value of the reference.
The SHIFT key selects an alternative function of the units key and alternative multipliers of the
multiplier keys. These alternative selections are named with small letters in the upper-left hand
corner of the keys.
Numeric Keypad
Use to record the digits of the output amplitude and frequency. The correct sequence to record a
value is to push the digits of the output value, a multiplier key (if necessary), an output units key,
and then . For example, to obtain an output of 20 mV, you would push this sequence of
keys: . Push to enable the output. If you push a digit key once the entry
field is full, or push the decimal point key more than once in a single number, the beeper will
sound.
The (Polarity) key changes the polarity of the output for dc voltage or dc current functions.
Push the key and then to toggle the output polarity.
The SCOPE TRIG (Scope Trigger) BNC connector is used to trigger the oscilloscope during
oscilloscope calibration. This is active only when an oscilloscope option is installed.
The SCOPE OUT (Oscilloscope) A BNC connector is used for outputs during oscilloscope
calibration. This is active only when an oscilloscope calibration option is installed.
