To check the output of the CALIBRATOR
In this test, you measure the output of the
rear-panel DC CALIBRATOR
OUTPUT with a multimeter. The
CALIBRATOR
is used for self-calibration of
the HP 54645A/D. The accuracy of the
CALIBRATOR
is not specified, but it
must be within the test limits to provide for accurate self-calibration.
The
CALIBRATOR
output produces DC voltages between 0 and 5V during
vertical calibration.
Test limits:
DC calibrator: 5.000 V
±
10 mV and 0.000 V
