Adjust the Output Signal
The 5502A gives different methods to change the settings for the output signal during
calibration. Since many adjustments of the output signal are necessary for oscilloscope
calibration, the three available methods to change these settings for oscilloscope
calibration are summarized below. These methods give the means of jumping to a new
value or sweep through a range of values.
Key in a Value
To key a special value directly into the 5502A from its front panel:
1. Key in the value and include the units and prefixes. For example to key in 120 mV
push . The Control Display will show:
Units and prefixes printed in purple in the top left corner of the keys
are accessed through the key. For example, to record 200
push .
If you make an error, push to clear the Control Display and go to the menu.
2. Push to start the value and move it to the Output Display, see below.
Other settings in the display will stay unaltered unless you key in an entry and
specify the units for that setting.
Adjust Values with the Rotary Knob
To adjust values in the Output Display with the rotary knob:
1. Turn the rotary knob. A cursor shows in the output display below the lowest digit and
starts to change that digit. If you wish to put the cursor in the field without a digit
change, push , see below.
