Just compare the displayed values to the expected values and write down the numbers on a piece of paper. Note that calibration does not involve any adjustments of the displayed value. This multimeter may have one or more potentiometers for adjustments, but I doubt anyone bothered with a thorough calibration. --- End quote --- That meter, if it indeed like the DT830, would have just one (cheapo) VR. I would adjust that against the 5V standard I have. While some would sneer at cheapies like DT830B, but it has its use. For $1-ish, it is rather decent for the money. It holds to the nominal 1%-2% accuracy rather nicely, some range better than others of course... |
