6.
Send
the
RO
(10
ohms)
command
again.
7.
Positive
gain corrections
are
next stored for
each
OHMS
range.
Refer
to
Table
2
and
select
the
reference
resistance
value
for
the
range being
calibrated.
Recommended
values
are
shown
(in
parentheses)
in
the
following procedure.
Also
refer to
Table
3
for reference resistance
tolerance requirements.
8.
With
the reference resistance for the 10
ohm
range
(20
ohms)
applied
to the
INPUT
HI and
LG
terminals (four wire configuration), allow the
multimeter
to
return
at least
one
reading
and
then
send:
KNG
(reference
numerics)
9.
The
gain correction
is
automatically applied
to
the
next reading
in
this
range.
Verify
proper
reference value entry
by
observing
that
subsequently returned
readings of the reference value equal
that
known
value
±
multimeter accuracy
specifications.
10.
Send
the
next higher range
command,
apply an appropriate
reference
resistance value,
allow
the
multimeter
to
return
at least
one
reading,
and
send
KNG
(reference
numerics) once
again.
Repeat
this
step
in
sequence
for
each higher
OHMS
range
(total ot eight).
Recommended
reference resistance values are as
follows:
a.
100
ohm
range
(Rl):
200
ohms
b.
1
kohm
range
(R2): 2
kohms
c.
10
kohm
range
(R3):
20
kohms
d.
100
kohm
range
(R4):
200
kohms
e.
1
Mohm
range
(R5): 2
Mohms
f.
10
Mohm
range
(R6):
20
Mohms
g.
100
Mohm
range
(R7):
100
Mohms

1.
Remote
resistance calibration
is
complete once
zero corrections
and
positive
gain corrections
have been
entered
for
each of
the eight ranges.
12.
If
no
further calibration
is
required, disable the Calibration
mode
by
sliding
the
rear
panel switch
to
OFF.

DC
Current
DC
current calibration
procedures
are
very
similar to the
positive
and
negative gain
corrections
used with dc
voltage
calibration.
With
the
multimeter
in
local
control,
Calibration
mode
can
be enabled by
sliding
the rear
panel Calibration switch
to
ON
(AVG/
(CAL)
annunciator
flashes).
Remember
never
to cycle input
power
to
the
multimeter
when
the Calibration
mode
is
on.
7B-36.
LOCAL (FRONT
PANEL)
PROCEDURE
Use
the front
panel
push
buttons
as follows:
1.
Push
the
ADC
button
and manually
select
the lowest (100
uA)dc
current range.
7B-28
