Step 4 - Prepare for Calibration

This step starts the calibration process for the LSPX3 / HR-X (HR-X3-P) probe changer.

You may use a straight-down 5 x 50 mm stylus tip.

To start the calibration process:

  1. Select the Calibrate tab in the Probe Changer dialog box (Edit | Preferences | Probe Changer).

Probe Changer dialog box - Type tab

Probe Changer dialog box - Calibrate tab

  1. In the Active probe changer list, select Probe Changer : TYPE= LSPX3.

  2. The entry in the Active probe file list defaults to the current measurement routine setting. If this is not what you will use for the probe changer calibration, select the proper probe.

  3. The entry in the Active tip list defaults to the current measurement routine setting. If this is not what you will use for the probe changer calibration, select the tip ID to use for calibration. This is usually TIP1.

  4. Empty the ports of all probes.

  5. Click Calibrate.

  6. When you are ready to take the first measurement, click OK.

In the next step, you take the first manual hit.
