7. Perform the performance verification tests to verify the calibration. For further information on instrument programming, refer to the EDU33210 Series Programming Guide. If you abort a calibration in progress, all calibration constants for the selected function range are lost. If power is turned off when the instrument is attempting to write new calibration constants to EEPROM, all calibration constants for the selected function range may also lost.
2. If the instrument fails any self-test, press [System] > Help > Error View to record the error code and message, and contact Keysight support if necessary. A complete self-test (*TST?) takes approximately 12 seconds. Keysight EDU33210 Series Service Guide...
