1. Press the amplifier PROBE DEGAUSS AUTOBALANCE button. Wait for
the degauss/autobalance routine to complete before proceeding. The routine
is complete when the indicator light turns green.
2. Connect the current probe to the DC current loop.
3. Refer to Table 6--7 and perform the following steps:
a. Set the amplifier to the appropriate range setting for the probe you are
testing.
b. Set the current source output to the correct current level.
c. Enable the output of the current source.
d. Adjust the DC gain control on the probe to the expected output value
showninTable6--7.

This completes the adjustments for the TCP305 and TCP312 Current Probes. Do
the appropriate performance verification procedure for the probe you adjusted,
using the procedures beginning on page 5-- 19.
