You CANNOT successfully zero a channel without, first, supplying zero volts or four milliamps to
the meter input for that channel.
You CANNOT successfully span a channel without, first, supplying the meter input for that channel
with its appropriate span voltage or span current.

Zeroing Unit (Voltage Range).
The following instructions explain how to short a given channel’s input signal to ground (0 volts DC)
and set the display to read zero at this voltage.
Locate the 15-pin, ‘D’ type connector that corresponds to the channel to be zeroed.
J1 = Channel 1
J2 = Channel 2
J3 = Channel 3
J4 = Channel 4
Short pin 5 (signal common) to pin 6 (signal in).
