3. Hz, Frequency Output
1. Turn the power on, then plug the test leads into the output connectors of
calibrator accordingly (Black to black, red to red). Attach alligator clip if
necessary.
2. Move the sliding switch to Hz position
3. Press the keypad (excluding the decimal point) to enter the value of Hz
directly.
4. Using the test leads or alligator clips, touch or clip on the terminals to be
calibrated.
5.Because not all the frequencies are available between 126 to 62500Hz,
calibrator will automatically adjust and display the users input value to a
frequency, which is available and always larger or equal to users input.

4. Thermocouple Calibration of °C, °F.
4a. General Operation
1.Turn the power on, and wait until the STBY symbol disappears (about 1
min.).
2.Plug the corresponding connector (K-type connector for K-type
thermocouple, J-type connector for J-type thermocouple, ...) into TC
terminals of calibrator and thermometer to be calibrated.
3.Move the sliding switch to °C, °F position
4.Press the keypad (including the minus - button) to enter the value of
Temperature directly.

Note: Users can plug the connector into the TC terminals of calibrator even
before the power is turned on for better thermal equilibrium between the TC
terminal and thermocouple connector.
Note: Only in the °C and °F functions, the negative values are allowed to be
entered. To enter negative temperature, press the minus"-" button first.
Note: Maximum 4 digits (including the "-" sign) can be entered.
If users enter less than 4 digits (1 to 3 digits), users must press
ENTER button to indicate the end of entry. If users enter 4 or
more digits, calibrator will automatically end the entry and output
specified value of temperature.

4b. Select °C, or °F
Users can select °C or °F by pressing the shift button to enter SHIFT mode. Then
press the NUMBER 5 button repeatedly to select desired temperature unit. After
desired unit is selected, press the SHIFT button again to exit the SHIFT mode.
Corresponding voltage °C or °F symbol will be displayed in the LCD.
