RETEST AFTER REPAIR Should a machine under test be rejected for any reason requiring the removal of any mechanical part that could affect the machine’s electrical characteristics, or if any electrical components are repaired or replaced, the machine must be retested.
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE Calibration must be done every time the control board is replaced! NOTE: the external reference voltmeter must to be connected as close as possible to output dinses to minimize the difference in reading between internal meter and external instrument. Note: during calibration the menu LED is lit on during all the process.
