Edit and Error Output Settings

You can edit all Calibrator outputs with the front-panel Edit Field knob and , ,
and . Also,  and  edit the output by decades. The difference in the initial
output (reference) and edited output is shown as an "error" between the two positions.
This lets you edit a value to get a correct measurement at the UUT and calculate an error
in ±% or ppm (parts per million) if it is less than ±1000 ppm. Table 4-2 shows the actions
that make the Calibrator exit the error mode and go to the initial reference output, or to
output a new reference, as selected.

Edit the Output Setting

When you initially source an output from the Calibrator, you record a value, for
example, 10.00000 V dc. To edit the output value for your operation, turn the front-panel
Edit Field knob clockwise to increase the value or counter-clockwise to decrease the
value. (The Edit Field controls will not operate if you are in a setup function. Push 
one or more times to exit a setup function.)
