The location of the output signal is indicated on the Control Display (the display on the
right side). If your Calibrator is connected, but the output does not appear on the
oscilloscope, you may have the Calibrator in standby mode. The settings for the output
signal are indicated in the Output Display (the display on the left side).
If STBY is displayed, press the O key. The Output Display will show OPR and the
output should appear on the oscilloscope.
How to Adjust the Output Signal
The Calibrator provides several ways to change the settings for the output signal during
calibration. Since oscilloscope calibration requires many adjustments of the output signal,
the three available methods for changing these settings for oscilloscope calibration are
summarized below. These methods provide the means of jumping to a new value or
sweeping through a range of values.
How to Key in a Value
The following example is for use in the LEVSINE mode. To key a specific value directly
into the Calibrator from its front panel:
1. Key in the value you want to enter, including the units and prefixes. For example, to
enter 120 mV press 1 2 0 c V. The control display shows:
