4.9.2.1.1.Auto Calibration
This automates the Capacitor and Threshold calibrations. It utilizes the same
procedures as the Capacitor and Threshold calibration, but it automatically steps
through the three capacitors and the two thresholds. It also automatically sets the
calibration date from the system date/time.
<Calc>
starts the automated procedure.
<Abort>
stops the procedure and restores the values to their original state.
4.9.2.1.2.Cap Calibration
The calibration coefficient is the difference in parts per million (ppm) between the
measured value and the current value of the three integrating capacitors used in
the 6530. The three coefficient values are stored in the instruments memory and
are used to compensate resistance measurements. If the capacitor values should
ever change or if the value in memory should become corrupted, the SOFCAL
program is able to measure the true value and store the new Capacitor coefficient
value in the 6530 memory in place of the old stored value.
Select the desired capacitor with the Up/Down Arrow and press
<Calc>.
