1 Execute the ACAL AC command. Following the autocal, execute the RESET 
command.
2 Set the front panel Terminals switch to Front. Set the Guard switch to the To 
LO position.
3 Set the synthesizer to deliver a 3 V rms sinewave at a frequency of  
100 kHz. Connect the synthesizer, the 3 V thermal converter, and the 
multimeter as shown in Figure 3-4. Record the exact DC voltage measured by 
the multimeter on Line A of the Adjustment Record.
The voltages referenced in this procedure are 3 V, 1 V and 100 mV rms for the 
SCAL  10, SCAL  1, and SCAL  .1 commands, respectively. If necessary, you can 
use any value between 3 V and 10 V rms wherever 3 V is referenced, 300 mV to 1 
V rms wherever 1 V is referenced, and 30 mV to 100 mV wherever 100 mV is 
referenced (make sure not to exceed the voltage rating of the thermal 
converters). (You still execute the SCAL 10, SCAL 1, and SCAL.1 commands 
regardless of the rms voltage value used). Whenever making low-level 
measurements, take precautions to minimize noise and interference in the test 
setup. Refer to Test considerations in Chapter 4 for more information.
