Calibration
Calibration is available to all ranges. Simply press and hold
"
CAL
" button for more than one second to enter the
calibration mode and calibration prompts will be displayed.
Follow the prompts for open connector (
) or short
connector (
) connection and press the "
CAL
" button.
After calibration is completed, the meter will be restored to
normal display and ready for normal usage.
Figure-7. Open/ Short Calibration
The function calibrates the meter’s internal parameters as
well as external connector influences for greater accuracy.
It is highly recommended to calibrate extremely high or low
ranges for L, C and R before making precision measurements.
Calibration prompts will be displayed automatically every time
those ranges are selected manually or by function (e.g.
REL
,
TOL
,
REC
etc.), and calibration is recommended. Simply
follow the open connector (
) or short connector (
)
instruction and then press the "
CAL
" button. You may skip
the calibration by pressing the "
D/Q
" button.
Notes:
1. Changing measurement frequencies is handled in the
same way as selecting a different hardware range, and so
automatic calibration prompts will be displayed in the
recommended ranges.
2. Be sure to use the same testing position after short
calibration.
