NOTES
1. Relative to calibration accuracy.
2. With Analog Filter on, add 20ppm of reading to listed specification.
3. When properly zeroed using REL function. If REL is not used, add 100nV to the range accuracy.
4. Specifications include the use of ACAL function. If ACAL is not used, add 9ppm of reading/°C
from TCAL to the listed specification. TCAL is the internal temperature stored during ACAL.
5. For 5PLC with 2-reading Digital Filter. Use ±(4ppm of reading + 2ppm of range) for 1PLC with
10-reading Digital Filter.
6. Channel 2 must be referenced to Channel 1. Channel 2 HI must not exceed 125% (referenced
to Channel 1 LO) of Channel 2 range selected.
7. Noise behavior using 2188 Low Thermal Short after 2.5 hour warm-up. ±1°C. Analog Filter off.
Observation time = 10× response time or 2 minutes, whichever is less.
8. For LSYNC On, line frequency ±0.1%. If LSYNC Off, use 60dB.
9. For 1kW unbalance in LO lead. AC CMRR is 70dB.
10. For Low Q mode On, add the following to DC noise and range accuracy at stated response
time: 200nV p-p @ 25s, 500nV p-p @ 4.0s, 1.2µV p-p @ 1s, and 5µV p-p @ 85ms.
11. After 2.5 hour warm-up, ±1°C, 5PLC, 2 minute observation time, Channel 1 10mV range only.
