• "To return the instrument" on page 246
To perform user calibration
User Calibration performs an internal self-alignment routine to optimize the signal
path in the oscilloscope. The routine uses internally generated signals to optimize
circuits that affect channel sensitivity, offset, and trigger parameters.
User Cal should be performed:
• Every five years or after 10000 hours of operation.
• When the ambient temperature of the oscilloscope is >10 °C different than
when the last User Cal was performed.
• When you want to maximize the measurement accuracy.
Performing User Cal will invalidate your Certificate of Calibration. If NIST (National
Institute of Standards and Technology) traceability is required, perform the
"Performance Verification" procedure in the Keysight InfiniiVision 1200 X-Series
Oscilloscopes Service Guide using traceable sources.
