Preparing for the Performance Tests
XW Warning
To prevent possible electric shock or personal injury:
Do not perform the following procedures unless qualified to do so. Some procedures involv
e
t
he use of high voltages.
Before handling the test connections and in between tests, make sure the calibrator is
in
s
tandby mode (STBY).
To prepare for the performance test:
1. Make sure that you have the required equipment (see Table 2).
2. Warm up the calibrator as required by its specifications.
3. Allow the temperature of the DUT to stabilize at room temperature: 23 °C ±5 °C (73 °F ±9 °F)
4. Check the fuses and battery and replace them if necessary. See Fuse Test (115, 117) and Battery and Fuse
Replacement.
To verify the accuracy of the DMM functions, do the following:
1. Connect the Calibrator to the VΩ and COM input terminals on the Meter.
2. Turn the rotary switch to the function listed in each step of Table 3 (110, 114, 115, 116, 117) or
Table 4 (113).
3. Apply the input level for each step listed in Table 3 (110, 114, 115, 116, 117) or Table 4 (113).
4. Compare the reading on the Meter display with the Display Reading in Table 3 (110, 114, 115, 116, 117) or
Table 4 (113).
If the display reading falls outside of the range shown, the Meter requires calibration adjustment or repair.
Testing Temperature (116 only)
Connect the K-type thermocouple to the temperature input of the Meter and temperature calibrator. To ensure
an accurate measurement, the Meter and the thermocouple connector must be at the same temperature. After
connecting the thermocouple to the Meter, allow the junctions to stabilize before recording the displayed
reading. This can take several minutes, depending on temperature gradients.

Meter Buttons Used in the Calibration Steps
For the Calibration Adjustment Procedure, the Meter buttons behave as follows:
Press and hold K to show the measured value. The measured value is not calibrated so it may
not match the
input value.
This is normal.
Press and hold M to display the required input value.
•Press g to store the calibration value and advance to the next step. This button is
also used to exit calibration
mode after the calibration adjustment sequence is complete.
•Press Q to toggle the backlight on and off.
This can be useful to determine why a calibration step is not accepted and to determine the input value without
referring to Table 5.
Calibration Adjustment Procedure

5. Press g to go to the first calibration step. The Meter displays C01 if the password is correct. If th
e
p
assword is not correct, the Meter emits a double beep, displays ?.?.?.? and the password must be entere
d
a
gain. Repeat step 4.
6. Apply the input value listed for each calibration adjustment step. For each step, select the rotary sw
itch
p
osition and apply the input to the terminals as indicated in Table 5 and Table 6.
Note
Some adjustment steps require additional wait time after the calibrator settles,
as noted in Table 5 and Table 6.
7. After each input value is applied, press g to accept the value and proceed to the next step (C002).
Note
After you press g, wait until the step number advances before you change
the calibrator source or turn the rotary switch. Some adjustment steps can
take up to several seconds to execute before the next step.
If the rotary switch is not in the correct position for a given step, the meter will
flash the unit annunciators until the rotary switch is put in a valid position. The
keys that show the reading and required input values are not allowed until the
rotary switch is correct.
If the rotary switch is not in the correct position or the measured value is not
within the anticipated range of the input value, the Meter will emit a double
beep and will not continue to the next step when you press g.
After the final step, the display shows End to indicate that the calibration adjustment is complete.
8. Press g to return to meter mode.
