For example, to set the output to 10 mV dc, press:
1 0 m V E O
To set an ac output, press the following additional
keys:
[numeric keys] [multiplier] H E
For example, to change the present 10 mV dc to
10 mV ac @ 1.8 kHz, press:
1 . 8 K H E
To change the output back to dc, press:
0 H E
or
+ E
A Short Calibration Exercise
If you are not familiar with the Calibrator, you will
find that the following exercise quickly teaches you
some important front panel operations.
Warming up the Calibrator
When you first turn the Calibrator on, you should
let it warm up for 30 minutes. This ensures that the
Calibrator meets or exceeds its specifications.
