– If the required reference input is "SHORT", use a shorting plug to short the
two relevant terminals.
– If the required reference input is "OPEN", just leave the terminals open.
– If the required reference input is a voltage, current, resistance, capacitance,
or temperature value, set up the Fluke 5520A calibrator (or another device
with equivalent standard of accuracy) to provide the necessary input.

uncalibrated reading, and the calibration indicator, "CAL", will appear on the
upper left corner of the secondary display. If the reading is within the
acceptable range, the word "PASS" will be shown momentarily, and then the
instrument will proceed to the next calibration item. If the reading is out of the
acceptable range, it will remain at the present calibration item after showing
the error code for 3 seconds. In this case, you need to check whether the
correct reference input has been applied. Refer to
the meaning of the error codes.
