calibrator sources low level signals between its output terminals.
Step 10:
Press the
(START)
key to allow the calibrator to source the set number of pulses responding to the preset
frequency and amplitude, the LCD will show the “RUN” icon.
Step 11:
When source is complete, the calibrator automatically switches OFF the output and ceases operation. The “RUN”

Step 12:
To switch OFF the output, press the
