calibration (+FS). The display shows the applicable
instructions to complete the calibration.
4. To make sure that the calibration is correct, select the
applicable T1 input task (Table 2).
5. Make sure that the DPI 880 gives a probe temperature
that agrees with the temperature on the digital
thermometer ±0.2°F (0.1°C).
Procedures: RTD (Ohms) input
1. Let the equipment get to a stable temperature (minimum:
5 minutes since the last power on).
2. Use the calibration menu (Table 9) to do a two-point
calibration for each range.
• Range: 0-399.9
a. Nominal zero ohms: Make a 4 wire connection to the
0 resistor (Figure 7).
b. Nominal positive full-scale ohms: Make a 4 wire
connection to the 400 resistor (Figure 7).
• Range: 400-4k
a. Nominal zero ohms: Make a 4 wire connection to the
400 resistor (Figure 7).
b. Nominal positive full-scale ohms: Make a 4 wire
connection to the 4k resistor (Figure 7).
The display shows the applicable instructions to calibrate
each range.
3. To make sure that the calibration is correct, select the
applicable ohms input task (Table 2).
4. Make a 4 wire connection to the applicable standard
resistor (Table 18) and measure the value (Figure 7).
5. Make sure that the error is in the specified limits
(Table 18).

Procedures: TC (mV) input/output
1. Connect the instrument to the calibration equipment:
• TC (mV) input = Figure 9b
• TC (mV) output = Figure 9d
2. Let the equipment get to a stable temperature
(minimum: 5 minutes since the last power on).
3. Use the calibration menu (Table 9) to do the calibration:
• TC (mV) input = three-point calibration
(-FS, Zero and +FS).
• TC (mV) output = two-point calibration (Zero and +FS).
The display shows the applicable instructions to complete
the calibration.
4. To make sure that the calibration is correct, select the
applicable TC (mV) input or output task (Table 2) and
apply the necessary values:
• TC (mV) input: -10, 0 (short circuit)
Then TC (mV): 25, 50, 75
• TC (mV) output: -10, 0, 25, 50, 75
5. Make sure that the error is in the specified limits
(Table 20).
