8.7 Calibration 6] Repeat from step 1 for the next two ranges.
Required equipment
▪▪Stable DC voltage source
▪▪Calibrated reference voltmeter
▪▪Reference shunts 1 mΩ and 10 mΩ
Procedure
1] Click the "Calibration" button on the Start
page or select "Calibration" from the "Tools"
menu to switch to the calibration page.
The existing calibration factors will be read
from the instrument and the calibration page
Figure 8.7.2 Voltmeter calibration
will be disabled until it is finished.
Ammeter calibration
Note The voltmeter in the instrument must be
calibrated before it is possible to calibrate the
Ammeter.
The ammeter is calibrated in an indirectly manner by
measuring the resistance over two predefined shunts
and compare with the reference values. The resistance
is measured with a capacitor voltage suitable for the
voltage and current ranges.
1] Connect the current cables from the MOM2
to the reference shunt
2] Connect separate sense leads from the
MOM2 sense input to the sense outputs of

4] Click the "Measure" button next to the field.
The value measured by the MOM2 will then be

1] Click the "Calibration Report" button to
show a preview of a calibration report.
It can be opened at any time during the
calibration. However, a complete report with
a calibration time can only be made when
the calibration is completed and saved to the
MOM2.
