18. Output 100 kΩ verification point on the calibrator.
19. Call 
DMM Configure Measurement with the following parameters:
• Function = 
Resistance
• Auto Range = FALSE
• Manual Range = 100 kΩ
20. Call 
DMM Read 20 times. Calculate and record the average value. Subtract the average 
value measured in step 17. Verify that the result falls between the limits listed in Table 7. 
Note Use the values in the 24 Hour Limits column for a post-adjustment 
verification only. Otherwise, use the values in the 1 Year Limits column.
Note Limits are provided for resistance instead of absolute limits because the limits 
depend on the actual resistance value output by your calibrator.
21. Repeat steps 18 through 20 for each verification point on that range listed in Table 7.
22. Repeat steps 13 through 21 for each range listed in Table 7.
23. Reset the calibrator for safety reasons.
24. Disconnect all cables from the calibrator and VirtualBench.
You have completed verifying the resistance function of the VirtualBench.
