When the calibration point finishes calibration and another calibration point is part of the
selected function, a new recommended calibration value will be displayed automatically.
Input the proper signal and repeat step 2 above.
When the last calibration point for the selected function finishes, the Meter will go to
IDLE mode where CAL appears in the secondary display and six flashing dashes appear
