Self Calibration
The self calibration uses internal calibration routines that check electrical characteristics such as analog level accuracy,
and then adjust the internal calibration constants as necessary.
NOTE. Power on the instrument and allow a 20 minute warm-up period before performing this procedure.
1. Confirm that there is no output signal by
verifying that the front-panel Run button
indicator is off.
2. To perform the calibration suite, select
System > Calibration... from the menu
bar.
The Calibration dialog box appears.
3. Select Execute.
4. A pop-up message asks you to remove
all the cables from the Analog output
connectors.
5. Remove the cables and then select OK.
Wait until the calibration completes.
For all calibration items, the Status con-
trol should indicate Pass. If it does not,
contact your local Tektronix service per-
sonnel.
NOTE. Self calibration is not valid until the instrument reaches a valid temperature. See page 2 for operating requirements.
NOTE. Perform self calibration once a year to maintain the analog output level accuracy.
