    Chapter 1 Calibration Notices RIGOL Chapter 1 Calibration Notices Calibration Interval Regular calibration can ensure the performance specifications of DP800. You are recommended to calibrate the instrument at a one-year calibration interval. Please perform regular calibration if higher accuracy is required.
  • Page 8: To Acquire The Calibration Service

    RIGOL Chapter 1 Calibration Notices To Acquire the Calibration Service RIGOL does not recommend manual calibration by users. If calibration is required, please contact RIGOL customer service department or the local distributor. Recommended Test Devices It is recommended that you use the test devices listed in the table below or other test devices whose performance specifications satisfy the “Performance Requirement”...
