Testing the Frequency Function (for 61-340 / 61-342)
To verify the accuracy of the meter’s frequency function, do the following:
1. Connect the calibrator to the
and COM inputs on the meter.
Note: The accuracy of the calibrator’s frequency function must be appropriate for the specified
accuracy of the meter.
2. Set the rotary switch to the
position.
3. Set the calibrator or function generator for the square wave voltage and frequency for steps 1 - 6 of
Table 7a.
4. Compare the reading on the meter display with the display reading shown in Table 7a.
5. If the display reading falls outside of the range shown in Table 7a, the meter does not meet
specification.

Testing the Duty Cycle Function (for 61-340 / 61-342)
To verify the accuracy of the meter’s frequency function, do the following:
1. Connect the calibrator to the
and COM inputs on the meter.
Note: The accuracy of the calibrator’s frequency function must be appropriate for the specified
accuracy of the meter.
2. Set the rotary switch to the
position. Press the Hz/DUTY button to select the DUTY CYCLE
function
3. Set the calibrator or function generator for the square wave voltage and frequency in Table 7b.
4. Compare the reading on the meter display with the display reading shown in Table 7b.
5. If the display reading falls outside of the range shown in Table 7b, the meter does not meet
specification.
