Title: Fluke 179 dc current offset issue
Post by: hugo on August 18, 2017, 02:10:13 am

Hi guys,

I've bought a Fluke 179 meter from evil bay, 3 years ago, that shows 200 uA offset on the DC/mA position and 2 mA offset on the DC/A position. I've discovered the issue only now.
Has anyone seen or been able to cancel this offset somehow without a recalibration $$$ ?

Thanks
