Calibration Switches
SHOCK HAZARD Only qualified, service-trained personnel who are aware of the
hazards involved should remove instrument covers. Always disconnect the power
cable and any external circuits before removing the instrument cover. Some circuits
are active and have power for a short time even when the power switch is turned off.
Two switches control the access to calibration commands. The switches are on the interface board and
are accessible by removing the top cover.
Accessing the Calibration Switch
1. Remove the instrument cover as described under Disassembly.
2. The calibration switch is on the interface board at the rear corner of the unit. To change the cal-
ibration switch settings, use a small screwdriver to move the switches. As shipped, all switches are
set toward the ON position (see below).
3. Replace the top cover when finished.
Do not use a pencil to move the switches. Any graphite dust that gets on the
switches will conduct electricity.

ment seals.
