7. Press E. If you entered a resistance value that is unavailable (as in the
following example of 490Ω), the Control Display prompts you to try again. If you
want to review the available resistance values, press the "List Value Table" softkey.

8. After you specify a valid resistance and press E, the calibrator clears your
entry from the Control Display and shows the characterized (true) resistance value on
the Output Display and on the Control Display.
9. Press O. This resistance is now available at the output terminals.
Depending on the value set, two or three softkey labels appear on the control display in
the resistance function: "2 wire Comp", "List Value Table", and "Setup Menus":

•
The "2 wire Comp" softkey only appears for resistance values of 19 kΩ or lower. It
turns on and off internal two-wire lead compensation circuitry. (See the full
explanation on its use below.)
•
The "List Value Table" softkey lists the nominal resistance values that the calibrator
can produce.
•
The "Setup Menus" softkey opens the setup menu.
In the resistance function, two features are available to enhance accuracy: four-wire
sensing and two-wire compensation. Two-wire compensation works with either a two-
wire connection or a four-wire connection to a two-wire ohmmeter. A full explanation
