Adjusting The Output Signal; Keying In A Value; Adjusting Values With The Rotary Knob - Fluke 5520A Operator's Manual

8-88. Adjusting the Output Signal

The 5520A provides several ways to change the settings for the output signal during
calibration. Since oscilloscope calibration requires many adjustments of the output
signal, the three available methods for changing these settings for oscilloscope
calibration are summarized below. These methods provide the means of jumping to a
new value or sweeping through a range of values.

8-89. Keying in a Value

To key a specific value directly into the 5520A from its front panel:
1. Key in the value you want to enter, including the units and prefixes. For example to
enter 120 mV press 1 2 0 g V. The Control Display will show:
Units and prefixes printed in purple in the upper left corner of the keys
are accessed through the b key. For example, to enter 200 µ s,
press 200bgbi.
If you make an error, press G to clear the Control Display and return to the menu.
2. Press E to activate the value and move it to the Output Display.
Other settings in the display will remain unaltered unless you key in an entry and
specify the units for that setting.

8-90. Adjusting Values with the Rotary Knob

To adjust values in the Output Display using the rotary knob:
1. Turn the rotary knob. A cursor appears in the output display under the lowest digit
and begins changing that digit. If you wish to place the cursor in the field without
changing the digit, press e.
