Calibration

Calibration and adjustments must be performed periodically so that the instruments
satisfy the specifications, and keep a good condition. It is recommended to perform
the calibration once a year at least. For the calibration and adjustments, contact your
nearest Keysight Sales and Support Office. Trained service personnel will perform
the calibration and adjustments.
