Use this procedure to load new calibration constants.
1. Enable the Service menu as described on page 5--2.
2. Push the Service option button.
3. Push the Factory Cal option button.
4. Push the Warmup Timer option button.
5. Push the Start Timer option button to ensure a 10-minute warm up. After 10
minutes pass, the oscilloscope displays a large black or green cross.
6. Press the front-panel UTILITY button and push the Service option button.
7. Push the Factory Cal option button.
8. Push the FCAL INIT option button to initiate the factory calibration routine.
You are now in step 1 of the procedure.
9. As indicated by Step 1 in Table 5--2, connect a 0.0 V
DC
source to the channel
inputs.
10. Press FCAL STEP to load the calibration constant for step 1.
11. Follow the screen prompts along with Table 5--2 for the remainder of the
routine, applying the proper signal for each step.
NOTE. During some steps, the oscilloscope may appear to be idle for several
minutes while it is processing information internally. You must wait for the screen
prompt to continue.
If any step in the procedure fails, the procedure terminates. Failure will result
if an incorrect signal source is connected. If this happens, you must start the
procedure over from the beginning.
If the procedure completes successfully, a “Pass” message is displayed and
the new adjustment takes effect.
12. Compensate the signal path by performing the self-calibration routine.
Disconnect any probes or cables from the channel input connectors. Then,
press the UTILITY button and select Do Self Cal to confirm that you are
ready to proceed.
13. Disable the Service menu option by pushing the UTILITY front-panel
button, and the Service and Service Mode Off option buttons.
