3.4.11. Calibration

Calibration is available in all ranges. Simply press and hold « CAL » key for one
second to enter the calibration mode and calibration prompts will be displayed.
•
Follow the prompts for open connection (
« CAL » button.
• After calibration is completed, the meter will be restored to normal display and
ready for normal usage.
The calibration will save the internal parameter as well as external connector
residues for further measuring. It is highly recommended to calibrate extremely high
or low ranges for L, C and R before making precision measurements. Calibration
prompts will be displayed automatically every time those ranges are manually or
functionally selected, (e. g. REL, TOL, MIN / MAX / AVG etc.). Simply follow the
open connector (
« CAL » button. You may skip the calibration by pressing the « D / Q / θ » button.
