Hallo, I have read this post and am curious if there is any progress on the calibration procedure of the Fluke 185 / Tek. TX3? I got one 185 in physical good condition, but with UNCAL massage after the power-on. It was used in my company (by me for several years), but several years ago it came back from the calibration service with a vague massage that it couldn't be calibrated or something similar my company wrote it off, and it could end up in a "dumpster". The meter is still working quite good, but I am not sure which ranges of functions are actually off, and by how much. And of course, there is the UNCAL massage at the power up every time. Anyway, it would be interested to find out how does that calibration procedure actually works. As already stated above, the Service Manual is very clear about it: if you want to calibrate it send it to us, there is no other way. The thing is of course, these meters economic value at this moment would be much lower then the cost of the official calibration. So, if I can help in any way with mine 185 let me know. I am not such a hacker (yet) though as you guys but with some guidance maybe I could contribute something. We would need calibration procedure description, including function-key-combination and the proper set of commands needed, with some cal voltage references. Greetings from Holland.
