13. Repeat step 12 for each of the remaining iterations shown in Table2.

14. Output 500 mV at 30 Hz on the calibrator.

15. Call niDMM_ConfigureMeasurement with the following

parameters:

•Function = NIDMM_VAL_AC_VOLTS_DCCOUPLED

•Range = 0.5

•Resolution = 500e–9

16. Call niDMM_Read. Verify that this measurement falls between the

limits listed in Table16.

17. Refer to Table3 for the appropriate calibrator outputs and parameter

values as you complete the following steps:

a. On the calibrator, output the value listed in the Calibrator Output

column in Table3 for the current iteration.

b. Call niDMM_ConfigureMeasurement with Mode set to

NIDMM_VAL_AC_VOLTS and the remaining parameters as shown

in Table3 for the current iteration.
