The default calibration password is "DMCAL". Modify the password You can use the direction keys at the front panel of DM3058/DM3058E to input the password. The up and down direction keys are used to select the character; press the up/down direction key to switch among "0 to 9", "A to Z" and "space". The left and right direction keys are used to move the cursor.
Calibration Devices You are recommended to use the devices listed in Table 1-1 to calibrate DM3058/DM3058E digital multimeter. If you do not have these devices, please use other devices that can meet the "Precision Requirement" in the table below. Table 1-1 Recommended Devices...
7. Ground the shield of the twisted pair and the shield of the coaxial cable. Unless otherwise noted, ground the LO terminal of the calibrator. As DM3058/DM3058E digital multimeter is a high-precision measuring instrument, special care should be paid during the verification and calibration to avoid causing additional error.
RIGOL Chapter 2 Calibration Calibration Explanation The DM3058/DM3058E calibration consists of user calibration and factory calibration. The calibration parameters acquired from the calibration performed by RIGOL factory or the RIGOL authorized third-party organizations are stored as the factory calibration parameters. The calibration parameters acquired by performing the calibration operations mentioned below are the user calibration parameters which will not overwrite the factory calibration parameters.
