NI 5122/5124 Calibration Procedure
Complete Calibration
Performing a complete calibration is the recommended way to guarantee
that the NI 5122/5124 will meet or exceed its published specifications for
a two-year calibration interval. At the end of the complete calibration
procedure, you verify that the measurement error falls within the
calibration test limits. Figure 1 shows the programming flow for complete
calibration.
