Adjustment Considerations
To adjust the instrument, you will need a test input cables and connectors set for
receiving the reference signals (for example, from the Fluke 5520A calibrator or
Keysight 33250A function/arbitrary waveform generator) and a shorting plug.
After each successful adjustment, the secondary display briefly shows "PASS". If

correct the problem and repeat the procedure.
Adjustments for each function should be performed with the following
considerations (where applicable):
1 Allow the instrument to warm up and stabilize for 5 minutes before performing
2 Ensure that during the adjustment, the low-battery indicator does not appear.
