Turn the power switch OFF and connect the power cord. Connect the power plug of the 701931 to the power receptacle of the 701934. Turn the 701934 power switch ON, and check that the front panel power indicator lights.
Set the input coupling of the waveform measurement instrument to DC. Connect the output connector of the 701931 to the input connector of the waveform measurement instrument. Turn the clamp lever until it clicks, and check that it is locked securely.
The calibration period varies depending on your operating environment and the frequency of use. We recommend that you set a calibration period according to the frequency of use and ask us to calibrate it periodically. IM 701931-01E...
