On-site Frequency Calibration
For on-site frequency calibration the RA0310 Actuator Connector is needed. It is an electrostatic
needed.
Items to use
• RA0310 Actuator Connector.
• GRAS 14AA Actuator Supply.
• A signal generator.
Procedure
1.
2. Connect the 14AA Actuator Supply and signal generator as shown below. The RA0310 must be
connected to the high-voltage output of the 14AA.
3. Perform the calibration .

Separate Level Calibration after Dismantling
The microphone can be calibrated separately after dismounting from the ground plate. For com-
Remove the microphone from the mounting plate.
1.
2. Mount the pistonphone calibration adapter (RA0221) on the pistonphone.
3. Insert the microphone into the adapter on the pistonphone. Press gently to ensure that the
microphone is inserted as far as it can go.
4. Turn on the pistonphone and calibrate as described in the instruction manual for the piston-
phone.
