Normal Accuracy Calibration Level
Normal accuracy calibration level refers to the level of accuracy that is
achieved when a plug-in is installed in a slot of a mainframe, but has not been
calibrated to best accuracy in that particular slot.
The oscilloscope uses the mainframe calibration factors and the plug-in
calibration factors to determine the normal calibration factors for that plug-in
in that slot.
The intent of this level of calibration is to allow any plug-in to be inserted in
any mainframe slot and still achieve a typical vertical accuracy of
±
3%.
For two-wide plug-ins, like the HP 54721A, the interleaving of the two
mainframe slots is performed during the best accuracy calibration.
Therefore, the real-time sampling mode is typically not useful in the normal
accuracy mode. For accurate results, a best accuracy calibration must be
performed to use two-wide plug-ins in the real-time mode.
