The subsequent list briefly describes the submenus available from the Setup Menu.
• Calibration- The items in this submenu are used to activate calibration to external
standards, Calibration Check, DC Zeros, and to verify or adjust the 5730A Calibrator
calibration to its specifications. The Calibration submenu and process is explained in
greater detail in Chapter 7.
• Self Test & Diagnostics- Use this submenu to do automatic internal self-diagnostics
on various features of the Calibrator. Once started, the self-diagnostic cannot be
interrupted. The Calibrator must be completely warmed up to run the self-diagnostics
or the process will timeout and prompt to let the Calibrator warm up.
The submenu also has a Key, Knob, and Bell Test that can be run from this point. The
key and knob test take input from the front-panel keys and rotary knob and return visual
identifiers that the key being pushed returns what it should. For example, if is
pushed, “Enter” is returned in the blank field of the submenu. When Run Bell Test is
pushed, an internal bell will sound.
