Calibration 2-7
Aborting calibration
You can abort the front panel calibration process at any time by pressing EXIT. The instru-
ment will then ask you to confirm your decision to abort with the following message:
ABORT CAL?
Press EXIT to abort calibration at this point, or press any other key to return to the calibration
process.
NOTE
The Model 2015 will not respond to any remote programming commands while the
ABORT CAL? message is displayed.
Front panel calibration
Follow the steps in the following paragraphs for comprehensive, DC only, AC only, distor-
tion, and function generator calibration procedures.
The procedures for front panel calibration include:
• Preparing the Model 2015 for calibration
• Front panel short and open calibration
• DC voltage calibration
• Resistance calibration
• DC current calibration
• AC voltage calibration
• AC current calibration
• Distortion calibration
• Function generator calibration
• Setting calibration dates
Preparing the Model 2015 for calibration
1. Turn on the Model 2015, and allow it to warm up for at least one hour before performing
calibration procedure.
2. Select the DCV function, and choose SLOW as the RATE (integration time = 10 PLC).
3. Start the calibration process as follows:
A. Access the calibration menu by pressing SHIFT then CAL.
B. Use the up and down range keys to scroll through the available calibration menu
items until the unit displays RUN, then press ENTER.
C. At the prompt, enter the calibration code. (The default code is 002015.) Use the left
and right arrow keys to move among the digits; use the up range key to increment
numbers, and press the down range key to specify alphabetic letters. Confirm the
code by pressing ENTER.
D. Choose N at the prompt to proceed without changing the code, then press ENTER.
