phase shifts (right).
3. Turn
SENSITIVITY 2 clicks counterclockwise, to 100 mV. The
meter should read near
+
100% deflection
4. Turn
Quadrant (in the Reference section) one click clockwise,
to the 90–180 interval. The meter should be near 0 deflection.
5. Turn
SENSITIVITY 3 clicks counterclockwise, to 10 mV. The
meter should still read between
−
30% and
+
30% deviation,
with no overload indicators.
6. Turn
SENSITIVITY 1 click counterclockwise, to 5 mV. The sen-
sitivity
OVLD
indicator should light.
7. Press [Reserve] twice, to select
Normal
. The
OVLD
indicator
should turn o
ff
. Manually adjust the phase setting (with the
REFERENCE knob) to null the meter. Turn
SENSITIVITY 2
more clicks counterclockwise, to 1 mV.
OVLD
should remain
o
ff
. Turn
SENSITIVITY once more, to 500
µ
V.
OVLD
should
light.
8. Press [Reserve] twice again, to select
High Res. OVLD
should
turn o
ff
. Manually adjust the phase setting again to null the
meter. Turn
SENSITIVITY 2 more clicks counterclockwise,
to 100
µ
V. You may try to further null the signal by manually
adjusting the phase setting again, although the signal may be
unstable with so much gain.
