Performance
Check Procedures
Use the following procedures to check the Model 3152 against the
specifications. A complete set of specifications is listed in Appendix
A. The following paragraphs show how to set up the instrument for
the test, what the specifications for the tested function are, and what
acceptable limits for the test are. If the instrument fails to perform
within the specified limits, the instrument has to be calibrated or
tested to find the source of the problem.
