724/725/726 Calibration Manual Fuses Warning To avoid electrical shock: • Remove the test leads from the calibrator before opening the battery door. Close and latch the battery door before using the calibrator. • Use only the specified replacement fuses listed under “Replaceable Parts”. • Do not allow water into the case. Note 724 and 725 Version 2.x and lower. Over time, the input protection has been modified to increase reliability.
Calibrators Remote Control Interface (725 and 726) Remote Control Interface (725 and 726) The Calibrator’s serial interface and remote control commands let you use a PC to remotely select Calibrator functions and read the Calibrator’s display. This remote interface is especially useful if you want to write your own calibration software. The 726 and 725 with V3.0 and higher firmware remote control interface is always active. To activate the 725 with firmware V2.

724/725/726 Calibration Manual Calibration Adjustment Procedures (726 and 724/725 with V3.00 and Higher) Note This procedure does not cover the verification of the unit. The Calibrator should never use up more than 50 % of its specifications immediately after calibration. When calibrating the 726, you can also exit and enter calibration mode while performing the verification, subject to the dependencies listed in the procedure.
