2-6 DG1000Z Calibration Guide
Offset (Output Offset) Calibration
1. Make sure that DG1000Z has been warmed up for at least 30 minutes. Connect
the channel output terminal of DG1000Z (take CH1 as an example, the
calibration method is also applicable to CH2) and the voltage input terminals of
the digital mutlimeter using a BNC-Dual banana plug connecting wire, as shown
in Figure 2-3.
2. Press Output1 corresponding to CH1 on the front panel of DG1000Z to turn on
the channel output.
3. Turn on the digital multimeter, select the DCV measurement function and set the
range to “Auto”.
4. Enter the DG1000Z calibration interface and press Cal Item to select Offset.
5. Press Cal Point and the cursor switches to the first calibration point in the ID
column.
6. Press Meas Val and the MeasValue column of the point selected becomes
editable. At this point, use the numeric keyboard or the knob and direction keys
to input the current measurement value of the digital multimeter.
7. Press Input Val to write the measurement value into the system and finish the
calibration of the point selected. The cursor switches to the ID column.
8. Use the knob to select the next calibration point. Repeat steps 6 and 7 to
measure the offset of this calibration point until finishing the calibration of all the
calibration points.
9. Press Save and the offset (output offset) calibration is finished.
