(continued on next page)

Figure 3.4 – Running the Calibration Test.

1.  Select the Settings but-

ton and then open the 
System Calibration tab. 

2.  Adjust the 3110 Output Volt-

age, if desired. A default test 
signal of 1 Vp will be pre-
entered in this box. Note: the 

default DC offset is 0 and 

cannot be changed.

3.  Connect an oscilloscope to 

the DUT (load at the system 

output).

4.  Press the Run Calibration 

Test button to begin the Cali-
bration Test. The 3110 will 
generate a 1 kHz sine wave 
signal at the designated test 
voltage.
