5.
Call DMM Get AC Voltage Calibration Adjustment Points
. This will return
three arrays:
•
Range
—A numerical array specifying the range being calibrated
•
Adjustment Point
—A numerical array specifying the voltage required to perform the
adjustment
•
Frequency
—A numerical array specifying the frequency of the calibration signal
6.
Output the adjustment point on the calibrator.

10. Reset the calibrator for safety reasons.
11. Disconnect all cables from the calibrator and VirtualBench.
You have completed adjusting the AC voltage function of the VirtualBench.
Adjusting Resistance
To adjust the resistance function of the VirtualBench, complete the following steps:
1.
Reset the calibrator.
2.
To adjust resistance ≤19 kΩ, connect the red connectors on one end of the low EMF copper
cable to the banana plug connectors of the VirtualBench, and connect the connectors on the
other end of the cable to the appropriate calibrator binding posts. Figure 10 shows the
correct connections.
