Modifying Calibration Kits
Procedure The following steps are used to modify or define a user kit:
1. Select the predefined kit to be modified. (This is not necessary for defining a new
calibration kit.)
2. Define the standards:
• Define which "type" of standard it is.
• Define the electrical characteristics (coefficients) of the standard.
3. Specify the class where the standard is to be assigned.
4. Store the modified calibration kit.
Modify Calibration Kit Menu The softkey in the cal kit menu accesses the modify calibration kit menu.
This leads in turn to additional series of menus associated with modifying calibration kits.
The following is a description of the softkeys located within this menu:
• makes the standard number the active function, and brings up
the define standard menus. Before selecting a standard, a standard number must be
entered. This number (1 to 8) is an arbitrary reference number used to reference
standards while specifying a class. The standard numbers for the predefined calibratio n
kits are as follows:
NOTE Although the numbering sequences are arbitrary, confusi on can be minimized
by using consistency. However, standard 5 is always a sliding load.
• leads to the specify class menu. After the standards are modified,
use this key to specify a class to group certain standards.
• leads to the label class menu, to give the class a meaningful label for
future reference.
