Remote Adjustment
Refer to Manual Adjustment for the process steps. Remote commands are in the Calibration
subsystem section of the 8588A/8558A Programmers Guide found online at www.Flukecal.com
.
Calibration Verification
The permissible errors shown are the 99 % confidence, 1-year, absolute errors. These error values
include Fluke Calibration calibration uncertainty. Adjust the permissible error values to reflect the actual
measurement uncertainty if they are different from the listed values.
