Review the Principles of Connector Care

Proper connector care and connection techniques are critical for accurate and repeatable 
measurements. Refer to 

Table 5-1 on page 5-3

 for tips on connector care.

Prior to making connections to your analyzer, carefully review the information about 
inspecting, cleaning, and gaging connectors. Refer to the calibration kit documentation for 
detailed connector care information.
