Appendix A: Calibration Options
The complete calibration process for the NI 4070/4072 consists of
verifying, adjusting, and reverifying a device. During verification, you
compare the measured performance to an external standard of known
measurement uncertainty to confirm that the product meets or exceeds
specifications. Figure 4 shows the procedural flow for verification.

compare the measured performance to an external standard of known
measurement uncertainty to confirm that the product meets or exceeds
specifications. Figure 4 shows the procedural flow for verification.
During adjustment, you correct the measurement error of the device by
adjusting the calibration constants and storing the new calibration constants
in the EEPROM. Frequency is the only mode that does not require
adjustment. Figure 5 shows the procedural flow for adjustment.
Reverifying all modes after adjustments ensures that the adjustment
procedures were performed correctly.

Normally, the calibration sequence is as follows:
1.
Verify the operation of the NI 4070/4072 using the 2-year accuracy
limits (or the 90-day accuracy limits if it has been externally calibrated
within that time).
limits (or the 90-day accuracy limits if it has been externally calibrated
within that time).
2.
Adjust the NI 4070/4072.
3.
Reverify the NI 4070/4072 using the 24-hour accuracy limits (or the
2-year accuracy limits when the 24-hour limits are not specified).

Depending on your measurement and accuracy requirements, a complete
calibration of the NI 4070/4072 may not be necessary. A number of options
are available that can shorten the calibration time. The following
adjustment options are available:
