4 Performance Tests and Calibration
Recommended Test Equipment
The test equipment recommended for the performance
verification and adjustment procedures is listed below.If the
exact instrument is not available, substitute calibration
standards of equivalent accuracy.
A suggested alternate method would be to use the Agilent
3458A 8½ - Digit Digital Multimeter to measure less accurate
yet stable sources. The output value measured from the
source can be entered into the instrument as the target
calibration value.
