EA003 OPTICAL TACHOMETER CALIBRATION ADAPTER 

OPERATION MANUAL 

 

If you are using a laptop to connect to the calibrator, the COM port will usually be 
COM 1. A desktop computer will usually be   COM 2 

 

Operation of the Virtual Front Panel 

 
Once the correct COM port is selected, the calibrator will be detected, and the main screen 
displayed : 
 

 

 
The main screen comprises of a main reading display, range selection buttons and 
function selection buttons. 
 
Sampling is indicated on the main 

display by  

 

Functions : Current Measurement 

 

  

 
The current measurement function provides five ranges to measure current: 
 

100uA • 10uA • 1uA • 100nA • 10nA 

 

Functions: Resistance Measurement 

 

 

 
The resistance measurement function provides five ranges. On initial selection of 
resistance, the program will indicate a voltage should be set and the range buttons will 
display ‘No Volts’. 
 
Selecting a test voltage using the voltage selection controls : 

 
Select a voltage from the drop down list, or by entering a voltage using 
the keyboard.  
 
Valid voltages are from 20V to 1000V.
