6-7. DC Current Test
The following procedure may be used to test the mA DC function:
1. Ensure the 8842A is on and has warmed up for at least 1 hour.
2. Select the mA DC function.
3. Connect the Current Source to the 2A and LO INPUT terminals.
4. For each step in Table 6-6, set the Current Source for the indicated input and verify
that the displayed reading is within the limits shown for each reading rate.
5. Set the Current Source for zero mA and disconnect it from the 8842A.
