16-10 Calibration Model 6485 Instruction Manual
11. Set the calibrator output voltage to –2.000000V, then calculate the calibration cur-
rent from the calibrator voltage and standard resistor value: I = V/R. Adjust the
Model 6485 display to agree with the calculated current, then press ENTER to
complete calibration of the present range.
12. Press EXIT to return to normal display.
13. Repeat steps 3 through 12 for the 20nA through 2µA ranges using Table 16-5 as a
guide. Be sure to make connections to the correct standard resistor and set the cali-
brator voltages to the correct values.
