*1: Adjust the source functions so that the readings of the calibration standard 
     (output values of the CA51/71) match the adjustment points listed above.

TIP

• You can also select only the range in need of readjustment to adjust it separately.

• Always make zero-point (0) adjustments together with full-scale (FS) adjustments.

Hook-ups for Adjustment

Step 1: Press the 

 key while simultaneously holding down the 

key.  The LCD shows 

.

Step 2: Pressing the 

 key enters the source CAL mode.  The

 indicator blinks on the LCD and the 

 symbol ap-

pears.  The calibrator is now ready for the zero-point adjust-
ment of source functions.

Step 3: From Table 10.1, select the range you want to adjust.  Then,

point the function selector switch to that range and press the

 key.
