used to provide calibration uncertainties to be combined with the 8508A Relative to
Standards specifications to determine the achieved Multimeter performance after
calibration. (RSS summation is recommended).
See Chapter 5 for more details of combining 8508A Relative to Standards specifications
and calibration uncertainties.
Note
The Multimeter should be thoroughly checked to ensure it is operating
correctly before attempting calibration. A performance verification
procedure appears later in this section.
Equipment Required for Calibration
The equipment required for Calibration and Performance Verification is listed in
Table 3-1.

[1] Availability of a 1 MHz frequency reference signal may be required for 5720A frequency locking during 8508A frequency
calibration procedure.
[2] Best uncertainties are obtained by characterizing the outputs of the 5720A and 5725A at the points used for 8508A calibration.
Alternate equipment may be used, but users should ensure it provides adequate
calibration uncertainties. Performance of the Multimeter after calibration should be
determined by combining the applicable calibration uncertainties provided by the
calibration equipment with the 8508A Relative to Standards specifications. (RSS
summation is recommended).
Preparing for Calibration
The following procedures represent the recommended order of calibration, giving all the
necessary setup commands.
1.
Allow the Multimeter to warm-up under power in the specified environment for at
least 4 hours.
2.
Press the
CLEAR
key, select
Pwr Up Dflt
to restore the power up default configuration
and display the
DCV
menu.
