4.7 Calibrating the DL6000/DLM6000
Procedure
UTILITY Calibration Menu
Press UTILITY and then the Calibration soft key to display the following menu.
Executes calibration
Turns auto calibration on and off
Explanation
Calibration
The following items are calibrated. Execute calibration when you want to make accurate
measurements.
• V
ertical axis ground level and gain
• Trigger threshold level
• Measured time value for repetitive sampling
Note
Calibration is performed automatically when the power switch is turned on.
Notes about Calibration
• Allow the DL6000/DLM6000 to warm up for at least 30 minutes before you execute calibration.
If you execute calibration immediately after power-on, the calibrated values may drift due to
temperature changes or other environmental changes.
• Execute calibration in an environment with a stable temperatu
re ranging from 5 to 40°C (23 ± 5°C
recommended).
• Do not apply signals when calibrating. Calibration may not be
executed properly if input signals are
being applied to the DL6000/DLM6000.
Auto Calibration (Auto Cal)
Auto calibration is executed when you start waveform acquisition if you have changed TIME/DIV and
any of the time periods listed below has elapsed since the power was turned on.
• 3 minutes
• 10 minutes
• 30 minutes
• One hour and every hour thereafter
If calibration is executed while signals are being applied to the DL6000/DLM6000, we recommend that
you stop signal application and recalibrate the DL6000/DLM6000.
