Equipment Configuration for Performance Testing 

2.

 

The DMM should read between 0.950  and 1.050V dc. If 

the probe is functioning but is not within these limits, access 
and adjust R2 for a DMM reading between 0.990 and 1.010V 
dc. Reassemble the probe. 
3.

 

Transfer the unit under test to the Normal output of the 

calibrator and reduce the output level to 0.250V rms 1 MHz. 
The DMM should read between 0.223 and 0.280V dc. 
4.

 

Set the AC Calibrator to STDBY, decrease the 

frequency to 100 kHz, and increase the voltage to 30V ac 
rms. (Do not exceed this value.)
