4. Performance Tests
The following performance tests verify the complete operability of the Meter and check the
accuracy of each Meter function against the Meter’s specifications. Accuracy specifications
are valid for a period of one year after calibration, when measured at an operating temperature
of 18°C to 28°C and a maximum of 80% relative humidity.
To perform the following tests, it is not necessary to open the case, no Adjustments are
necessary, merely make the required connections, apply the designated inputs, determine if
the reading on the Meter display falls within the acceptable range indicated.
