Note: Before setting up an AUTO-CAL, be sure you understand the

Zero and Span functions as described in section 4.4, and
follow the precautions given there.

Note: If you require highly accurate AUTO-CAL timing, use external

AUTO-CAL control where possible. The internal clock in the
Model 6000B is accurate to 2-3 %. Accordingly, internally
scheduled calibrations can vary 2-3 % per day.

To setup an Auto–Cal cycle:

Choose

System

from the Function buttons. TheVFD will display five

subfunctions.

ΔΔΔΔΔ∇ arrows to set the OFF/ON field to ON. You can now turn

these fields ON because there is a nonzero span interval defined.

If instrument is turned off, the next time the instrument is powered, the

instrument will automatically perform a calibration cycle after 3 minutes of
entering the sample mode if AUTOCAL functions were on prior to shut down.
