Maintenance & Calibration
This chapter discusses the procedures you can use to ensure your instrument remains
optimally functional. They include routine maintenance and calibration.
Daily Maintenance
For optimum DC offset performance, perform an Input Calibration sequence at daily
intervals, or following 5°C + temperature changes. Perform an Internal Calibration
for optimum phase performance.
The following daily procedure is highly recommended to ensure that the highest
quality of measured results is obtained.
Low Level DC Measurements
In all cases, if the operation of the instrument is suspect, the operating temperature of
the instrument has significantly changed, or the instrument has not been in use for
longer than 30 days, then perform this procedure.
Procedure without Equipment
This procedure requires no external equipment and no external connections. Note
that external connections present need not be removed during the procedure.
1. Ensure that the instrument has been operating for at least 30 minutes.
2. Press the
Cal
key.
3. Press the
DISPLAY SELECT 1
key (next to the
System Status
display line).
a) Take careful note of the scrolled display messages.
b) If any input(s) are shown as
inactive
or
faulty
then the instrument requires
repair, corrective action is required.
