II. Operating Instruction
1. mA Output
1a. General Operation 4 - 20mA
1 Turn the power on, and wait until the STBY symbol disappears (about 1
min.)
2 Plug the test leads into the output connectors of calibrator accordingly
(Black to black, red to red). Attach alligator clip if necessary.
3 Move the sliding switch to mA position
4 Press the keypad (including the decimal point) to enter the value of mA
directly.
5 Using the test leads or alligator clips, touch or clip on the terminals to be
calibrated.
Note: Always waits until STBY (standby) symbol in the LCD disappears before
any operation.
Note: Maximum 5 digits can be entered. If users enter less than 5 digits (1 to 4
digits), users must press ENTER button to indicate the end of entry. If users
enter 5 or more digits, calibrator will automatically end the entry and output
specified value current.

The default setting for mA function is 4 - 20mA. But users can select 0 - 20mA or 0
-24 mA by pressing the SHIFT button to enter the SHIFT mode. Then press the
NUMBER 2 or NUMBER 3 button to select desired DC current range. After desired
range is selected, press the shift button to exit the SHIFT mode. Corresponding
current range symbol will be displayed in the LCD.
